Providing support and advice: What kind of non-Wikimedia support can you direct someone to?
editYou will have noticed in the above sections that due to privacy, safety, and legal concerns, there are significant limitations to the types of assistance that community members and the Wikimedia Foundation can provide to users being targeted by harassment. This does not mean, however, that there is no help you can offer to those in need of types of assistance you and the WMF cannot provide; you are free to use your judgment in referring those in need of further assistance to organizations and resources that can offer that help! The following examples are by no means exhaustive; for a more detailed listing of resources, see the Support & Safety Resource List.
- Suicide prevention hotlines: United States / non-United States
- The Trevor Project LGBTQIA crisis support
- English/Spanish bilingual crisis hotline for "LGBTQ & HIV-affected victims and survivors of any type of violence"
- RAINN: Support for victims and survivors of rape, abuse, and incest
- WHOA (Working to Halt Online Abuse) crisis support for targets of online harassment and threats
- Crash Override Network for targets of online abuse
- National Crime Agency Command (United Kingdom only) for protection of at-risk or abused children
