Support for survivors

Domestic violence is not only physical.

It can take the form of emotional abuse, threats and intimidation, sexual abuse, financial control, isolation, coercive control, stalking, or digital abuse.

Recognizing these forms of violence matters, too. No one should have to live in fear, under threats, in isolation, or under someone else’s control.

Golden Rose stands with survivors. You are not alone, and you deserve to be heard and supported.

Emergency or immediate danger?

Call 911. In NYC, if it is not safe to make a call, you can text 911. Always call if you can; text only if you can’t.
