WAO opens new hotline

PETALING JAYA: The Women’s Aid Organisation (WAO) announced a new hotline to offer crisis support to survivors of domestic violence and other forms of gender-based violence.

“Along with this new number, WAO is upgrading our hotline system to better adapt to remote working. This new system is able to handle more incoming calls, which can be diverted to crisis support officers – volunteers who operate the WAO hotline – working remotely, ” said the NGO.
