If you're in danger call 911 now.

If you need help now or just need to talk, please call our 24-hour crisis hotline at:

Local phone call:  937-461-1000

Toll-free line: 1-877-833-3199

Trained, caring employees are available 24 hours a day to talk to you about your situation and to help you decide the best course of action. We can also help you get to Daybreak from wherever you are.

If you're in Montgomery County, Ohio, you can get a ride to Daybreak by asking any RTA bus driver to help you get to Daybreak. The ride is free.

Or you can go to a Safe Place site in your neighborhood. Look for the big yellow sign (see below) on businesses, libraries, fire stations, and police departments. That sign means that the people working in that building will help you contact Daybreak and give you with a safe place to wait until we can arrange to pick you up.
