House of Ruth Maryland offers a shelter, 24/7 hotline, legal center, and more to help women, men, and children who are victims of intimate partner violence.
If you need help, please contact House of Ruth Maryland's 24-hour hotline at 410-889-7884 to speak with a trained counselor who will talk with you about your situation and help connect you to the resources you need.
