Hotline Outer Banks

Hotline Outer Banks While we love our thrift stores, Hotline Outer Banks offers so much more. Help when it's hardest to ask. Hope when it's needed most.

We provide 24/7 crisis support, advocacy, shelter, and hope for survivors of harm and coercion across the Outer Banks.

Fear doesn’t keep business hours. Neither does Hotline.

Whether someone is experiencing a crisis, worried about their safety, or simply needs to talk through what is happening, Hotline’s trained advocates are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

They listen without judgment, help callers consider their options, provide information about available services, and assist with safety planning. Calling does not obligate someone to leave, report the abuse, or make a decision before they are ready.

Call Hotline’s confidential 24/7 crisis line at (252) 473-3366.

“Why don’t they just leave?” Because leaving isn’t one decision. It’s a hundred.

Where will I go?
Will my children be safe?
Can I take the dog?
How will I pay for housing?
What documents do I need?
Will leaving make the danger worse?

For someone experiencing an abusive relationship, leaving can involve safety, children, pets, housing, money, transportation, legal concerns—and very real fear. Hotline Outer Banks helps survivors explore their options and create a personalized safety plan without judgment and without pressure.

If you or someone you know needs help, call Hotline’s 24/7 crisis line at 252-473-3366.

Your response can help someone feel less alone—and make it easier for them to ask for help. Try asking:
Are you safe right now?
How can I support you right now?

You don’t need to have all the answers. Begin by listening and checking on their immediate safety.

Try not to pressure or question their decisions, confront the other person, or take control of what happens next.

Hotline can help with a 24/7 crisis line staffed by professional, dedicated, and compassionate advocates (252) 473-3366.

A job should never cost someone their freedom. When an employer controls a worker’s movement, identification, wages, housing, or ability to leave, something may be seriously wrong.
