A Call for Change Helpline

14/09/2026

Realizing something you did was harmful is one thing. Actually changing the behavior is another.

☕ In this episode of Brewing Change with Growing A New Heart, we talked about what comes after saying, “I want to change.”

Can you guess which café we visited? ☕

📍 HINT: It’s located in the first city in Massachusetts, and all of New England, to elect a woman mayor.

One more episode to record! Brewing Change is almost here.

☕ Another Brewing Change episode is brewing with Growing A New Heart.

📍 Can you guess which café we chose for filming?

Hint: This cafe is located at a city that helped put “planned” into industrial planning. Bonus clue: its nickname practically gives it away.

Holding accountable those who cause harm should never become another responsibility placed on survivors!

In a new interview with The Spark VT, Growing A New Heart co-founder JAC Patrissi shares why accountability work must be rooted in survivor wisdom, what genuine change looks like beyond minimizing, denying, and blame-shifting, and why communities need the skills to help people become reliably safe.

A Call for Change was honored to be part of the Men & Gender-Based Violence Summit at Simmons University!

The summit created a space for men to learn, connect, and engage in conversations about preventing gender-based violence through workshops, community resources, and dialogue with local organizations.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our session and to all of the organizers and partners who made this day possible ♥️

There is a distinction between restorative justice and transformative justice.

Transformative justice asks us to address harm outside systems of punishment and control and to create conditions where harm can be interrupted without replicating dominance.

At Growing a New Heart, we lead spaces, such as A Call For Change: a free, anonymous, and confidential intimate partner abuse prevention helpline for adults and teens who want to stop causing harm.

📞 Call 877-898-3411

A common concern about accountability spaces is whether people might use them to manipulate, intimidate, or continue causing harm.

A Call For Change is a free, confidential national helpline for people who want to be reliably safe and respectful in their relationships.

Responders are supported through intensive training, guidance, and supervision as they cultivate the human connection, vulnerability, and truth-telling that can foster change.

📞 Call 877-898-3411
🕙 10 AM–10 PM ET
📅 365 days a year

The helpline also receives calls from friends, family, community members, and professional helpers.

Accountability after causing harm can be difficult to navigate.

You may be trying to change while also feeling frustrated, resentful, confused, or unsure of what accountability should look like in your relationship.

A Call for Change can help you think through these dynamics and examine the deeply held values and beliefs that support your choices.

People working to change are encouraged to call us at 877-898-3411 from 10 AM to 10 PM ET, 365 days a year.
