ask for the phonebook, find the number, write it down, give it to her…

it is good to be able to hand a person something with the number written on it… a battered person (woman or man) may be hesitant at first but if that piece of paper is in their pocket, it causes them to think

I used to shelter battered women so I have the number in my head but writing it down for them is crucial
