When you decide to escape domestic violence, it may feel impossible to know where to start. You’re ready to leave– now what?

There are a variety of things to consider when you make the decision to leave an abuser. From safety planning to orders of protection and everything in-between, the task can feel overwhelming.

We’ve prepared a toolkit to make the process of leaving feel within reach, more manageable, and for added peace of mind and security. You can download the toolkit here, or by using the gray DOWNLOAD TOOLKIT button above.

Inside you’ll find links to helpful articles, recommended books, checklists, relevant survivor survey results, support communities and how to find help.

Remember, domestic violence advocates are available via national and local hotlines to help you plan your escape and your future.
