Crisis Hotline Advocates support those in crisis by offering an ear to listen and a heart to get them to the help they need. Guide callers to their needed resources which may be a referral to services outside of BATP or schedule them for a BATP assessment so we can begin the rebuilding process. Required comprehensive training is provided. 3-4 hour shifts are available Monday - Friday between 8:30am and 5:30pm.

Mission Statement
Bay Area Turning Point, Inc. provides recovery solution services for survivors of family violence and sexual assault and facilitates violence prevention strategies for societal change in partnership with our community. AGENCY VISION: Peace. Every Woman, Every Child, Every Man...Every Day.
Description
Bay Area Turning Point (BATP) began as a grassroots effort formed by volunteers in direct response to a United Way Assessment that identified a widespread need in the Bay Area for aid to victims of physical crime (domestic violence, child abuse, child sexual abuse, elder abuse, incest, rape, threats, sexual harassment, date rape and dating violence). Five years later, a newly constructed, debt-free shelter facility opened its doors to the Bay Area offering compassion, a safe haven to heal and provide essential services.
