More people exposed to threats or violence now have greater access to support at any time of day.

The National Center for Women's Peace (NCK) is expanding telephone access for affected men, transgender people and people living under honor-related threats and violence. The support line for vulnerable women has been open 24/7 since 2007.

"Through increased accessibility, we lower the threshold for seeking support," says Anna Häger, operations manager at NCK, in a press release.

Chat availability is also being expanded to four days a week across all support lines.

The Women's Peace Line, the support line for men, the support line for transgender people and the right-to-choose support line, for those who are subject to honor-related monitoring, are run by NCK on behalf of the government.
