Tooele County Attorney - Victim Advocacy Crisis Line - DVSAVA
DVSAVA's Mission
We oppose the use of violence as a means to control another person and encourage individuals to acknowledge and reclaim their personal power. We provide 24/7 advocacy support and resources for victims of Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault, and educate our community through outreach efforts.
What is Domestic Violence?
Domestic violence is a pattern of violent and coercive behaviors, including physical, sexual, and psychological attacks, as well as economic coercion, that adults or adolescents use against their intimate partners.
Victims of domestic violence often struggle with feelings of helplessness, shame and fear. Many are unaware that there is help available. The victim may have limited financial resources, may not be a legal citizen, or may have other reasons they continue to stay with the abuser. DVSAVA does not make judgments or tell you what you have to do. The choice is yours.
Many times a victim is forced or coerced into losing touch with family or friends. If someone you know is being abused let them know you care. Let them know there is hope and help available.
