To chat with us, please read the safety advisory below and click the \u201cChat Now\u201d button. We\u2019re also able to receive texts to <a href=\"tel:8089350677\">(808) 935-0677<\/a> within the hours listed above. Advocates are available to provide support, resources and referrals, or can just be someone to talk to about what\u2019s going on and what to do next.<\/p>\n<p>We know how hard it is to seek help when you are in an abusive relationship or a victim of sexual assault, and we want to make accessing that help as easy as possible. Making a phone call to a support line or leaving the house is not always possible when you are living with an abusive partner. And for many, an online chat might feel more comfortable than a phone call or meeting with an advocate in person.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"theme-button large\" href=\"https:\/\/www.resourceconnect.com\/ywcaofhawaiiisland\/chat\">Start WebChat<\/a><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h2>Safety Considerations<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Our web chat is end-to-end encrypted.<\/strong> Therefore, only you and the Advocate you\u2019re chatting with can read the contents of the messages being sent.
