What We Do
Response provides free, confidential support for survivors of domestic and sexual abuse, stalking and human trafficking in the upper Roaring Fork Valley.
From our 24/7 crisis helpline and emergency shelter at the Halle Center to safety planning, advocacy, housing assistance and other practical support, Response meets survivors where they are and helps them determine what comes next.
We also work throughout our community to prevent violence through education, outreach and partnerships.
“It was the first time I told someone the whole truth, and they believed me and did not judge me. They didn’t tell me what to do. They simply said, ‘You can do this.’ Response helped me understand, for the first time, that I wasn’t alone.”
— Response survivor
“I would not be where I am today without Response. They gave me safety, support, housing, therapy, and the space to rediscover who I was before I lost myself. That changes lives.”

To work with our community to end domestic and sexual abuse and to support survivors in achieving safety and empowerment.
Founded in 1983, Response has served survivors in the Roaring Fork Valley for more than four decades. In 2025, Response opened the Diane and Bruce Halle Foundation Center for Hope and Healing in Basalt, bringing survivor services, advocacy and a seven-unit emergency shelter together under one roof.
Today, Response provides free and confidential services to survivors of domestic and sexual abuse, stalking and human trafficking while working with schools and community partners to prevent violence before it begins.
