🆘 Domestic Abuse & Crisis Support
If you or someone you know is in danger, call 911. You do not lose your immigration status by reporting abuse — protections exist specifically for immigrant survivors. These organizations understand South Asian family contexts and offer confidential help in Indian languages.
In immediate danger? Call 911. For emotional crisis, call or text 988. Both work 24/7 from any U.S. phone.
