\"The National Domestic Violence Hotline looks forward to [Katie Ray-Jones] taking the organization to the next level in her role as CEO. Katie has a proven track record of serving victims and survivors of domestic violence and has a unique understanding of the importance of providing them with expert help whenever they take the brave step to reach out,\" said Maury Lane, chair of the board of the National Domestic Violence Hotline. \"I am honored to serve as CEO and president of the Hotline which has provided services to more than 3.5 million men and women since it was first founded 18 years ago,\" said Ray-Jones. \"Unfortunately, because of a lack of resources, nearly 78,000 calls went answered last year. In my new position, I will do my best to ensure that every person who reaches out for help gets the information they need because I strongly believe that every person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect and the Hotline can help them on that journey.\"

There are several ways during the month of October to get involved. NDVH, in partnership with the HopeLine program through Verizon, is encouraging everyone to lead a drive in their community to collect old cell phones and accessories. Phones are refurbished and loaded with critical features for use by domestic violence victims. In addition to the used cell phone drive, anyone affected by domestic violence (DV) is encouraged to participate in the month long \"How I See DV\" awareness campaign by sharing their views via social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or YouTube using #SeeDV. Throughout the campaign, visitors to http://www.thehotline.org/how-i-see-dv/ will find guest entries on the organization's blog page, ideas for joining the conversation to raise awareness about domestic violence and resources for learning more about healthy versus unhealthy relationships.
