Services

We are an organization of men and women providing services to our communities in the area of domestic violence, sexual assault and victim witness's of crime.  Hi-Line's Help For Abused Spouses believes every person has the right to make their own decisions and our purpose is to provide information, advocacy and/or support regarding those choices.  Our service area includes Pondera, Teton, Chouteau, Glacier, Liberty, NE Lewis & Clark and Toole Counties, approximately 16,000 square miles.
Crisis Intervention
We provide a 24-hour crisis line. The crisis line volunteers answer the incoming calls, obtain information from the caller such as first name, phone # and if the person is safe. The volunteer then contacts an advocate who will respond as quickly as possible in contacting the caller back.
One-on-One Advocacy
A personal advocate will assist in any way possible providing support, suggesting possible options, making referrals to other assistance programs, (Department of Family Services, Office of Human Services, Health Departments, etc.), helping with transportation, seeking shelter or a safehome, and assisting in filing court papers such as orders of protection. Advocates also offer emotional support at a time when it is needed the most.
Educational Presentations
Workshops, in-services, trainings for volunteers, law enforcement, medical personnel, child protective services, and community based organizations as well as a school program on dating violence and sexual harassment/date rape.
