If you are in immediate danger, call 911. For 24/7 confidential crisis support, the National Sexual Assault Hotline is 1-800-656-4673.
Most clinicians don't routinely treat sexual assault patients, and in some environments a trained provider simply isn't nearby. 24/7 access to specialized TeleSANE providers, on-call and experienced in both DC's urban environment and telemedicine, ensures trauma-informed care and appropriate evidence collection wherever a patient is.
