A place to reach us
When life hits hard, this is a place to reach us so we can help you work through the problem together, with the strength that Torah gives. For any emergency, always contact your local emergency services first.
Reach out nowEmergency lines, country by country
Scroll the list, or type the first letters of your country. We cannot guarantee that these numbers are up to date and accept no responsibility if one has changed or does not answer — confirm with your local authorities.
Reach us — fast response
Share what you can. Your message is flagged as urgent and read by a person. This is not a monitored 24-hour line — for anything that cannot wait, call your local emergency services.
Where we step in
These are the kinds of situations the Crisis Arena is set up to take on: mediation and negotiation between parties; complex situations involving educational institutions, hospitals, airlines, and other organizations; questions concerning employees or tenants; crisis management and administration; financial-emergency strategy; and support for those abroad who must resolve a situation far from home. Tell us what you are facing and we will say honestly whether we can help, and who else should be involved — with a single, steady point of contact at your side from beginning to end.
Live chat — write to us
Write here and your message reaches the team’s e-mail the moment you send it — and it stays here; nothing you write is erased. Leave an e-mail address so we can answer even if this window closes. If a call is needed, the link comes to you here in the chat.
Under 18? Please tell a parent or another adult you trust that you are writing to us. We answer you here, in this chat, and where a young person may be at risk the team will involve a parent or guardian. If you are in danger right now, contact your local emergency services.
If someone is in danger right now, call your local emergency number.

The ecosystem
Connected arenas
No arena stands on its own. From here, these are the doors that open next — and why.
Torah Arena
When the hardest part is over, this is the door back into an ordinary week.
Mental Health Arena
What comes after the emergency: steady support, week by week.
Survivors Arena
If what happened was abuse, there is a gentler, slower place for it.
Private Arena
For the practical side — money, mediation, someone to speak for you, in confidence.
One ecosystem, 24 arenas, all of them connected. See the whole ecosystem →
