Victim Assistance Hotline - Temporary Phone Number Change
For several days, the toll-free number for our Victim Assistance hotline was disconnected but was restored on January 27th. For reference, the number is 1-866-407-4505.

However, the local number which was provided via email (727-341-6859) also works, and all calls to that number will go directly to the private line, as is the case with the toll-free number.

To access instructions on how to report abuse to our Victim Assistance hotline, please select the option, “How To Report Abuse,” located near the bottom right corner of the homepage of the diocesan website: www.dosp.org.
