domestic violence ends, empowerment begins

Welcome to The Bridge, a place of empowerment, support and transformation. We are here to stand with survivors, allies and those seeking change. Our mission is to end domestic violence and sexual assault, and to provide the resources, education and community needed for healing and prevention.

If you or someone you know is feeling threatened, abused or scared, call our 24-hour crisis line:

(888) 721.4340

From Wahoo to Wisner and North Bend to Fort Calhoun, advocates are available for victims an anyone calling on their behalf to provide crisis intervention, safety planning, information and referrals to other agencies.

If you have experienced domestic violence or sexual assault, we understand this was a traumatic experience for you.  It may be difficult for you to identify what you are feeling and you may be numb or in shock to what has happened to you.  You may not know who you can tell. 

Call our 24-hour hotline at 402.727.7777 or 888.721.4340 

You are not alone. The Bridge believes you. We understand that this was not your fault. You can get in touch with someone called an advocate who can help you through this process, and you can even start reporting to authorities if you choose to. 

We respond around-the-clock, and an advocate can meet you at the hospital or police department. That means you don’t have to be alone. These services are free and confidential, so the advocate won’t share information with anyone else.
