Knowing where to turn for help can be an important part of staying safe. This session will introduce participants to legal, housing, crisis, advocacy, and community-based resources available to survivors and individuals experiencing violence or threats. Participants will learn how organizations such as Nisa Homes, Sakeenah Homes, the Islamophobia Legal Assistance Hotline (ILAH), and Shoot for Peace can complement legal protections through safety planning, advocacy, referrals, education, and community support.
