Domestic Violence · Maine · Free

1-866-331-9474 — free 24/7 dating abuse support for young people including LGBTQ+ youth. Worth contacting if a provider refused you DV services because the abuser was the same gender. Therapy groups for LGBTQ+ DV survivors are usually free, meet weekly, and meet either in person or online. Same-sex IPV often gets mis-categorized as 'mutual combat' by police unfamiliar with abuse dynamics; LGBTQ+-trained responders fix this. Free, confidential, and open to anyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
