Welcome to the Web site of the New Hampshire Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence. Founded in 1977, the Coalition is an umbrella organization for a statewide network of 14 independent member programs committed to ending domestic and sexual violence. To that end we seek to:
- ensure that quality services are provided to victims/survivors of domestic and sexual abuse;
- prevent future violence by educating the public;
- encourage accountability and the provision of services for perpetrators
The Coalition supports its network by providing community education, coordination, training, resource sharing, and advocacy for public policy changes that affect victims of domestic and sexual violence.
You can learn more about domestic and sexual violence on this site, and the services available to victims through our member programs. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, call 1-866-644-3574 for information and support. For sexual violence, call 1-800-277-5570. You don't have to be in a crisis to call. Trained advocates are there to talk with you anytime, day or night. If you are in immediate danger call 911.

Our beautiful note cards make a wonderful holiday gift!
Every year the Coalition produces beautiful note cards featuring the work of local artists.
For our most recent card the Coalition partnered with Seacoast artist Richard Haynes. His work entitled “Love” embodies the holiday spirit.
The suggested donation is $20 for 10 blank note cards. Any donations you can make above that amount will be greatly appreciated and help the Coalition continue its public policy and outreach work on behalf of survivors of interpersonal violence.
