Report a Hate Crime or Find Help

Report a Hate Crime or Find Help

In an emergency, dial 9-1-1 or your local police to get immediate help.

To report a hate crime:

If you believe you are the victim of a hate crime or that you witnessed a hate crime—

STEP 1: Report the crime to your state or local police.

  • Dial 9-1-1 or call your local police station.
  • Police officers may reach out to you for more information as they investigate the crime.

STEP 2: Quickly follow up this report by reporting the crime to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

  • Online: You can report a hate crime to the FBI online at: tips.FBI.gov.
  • Follow the instructions on the pop-ups and fill out the online form to report a hate crime.
  • By Phone: Call the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324).
  • The FBI may reach out to you for more information as they investigate the crime.

Your Voice Matters: Not every hate incident involves a crime. You can report any incident to the Civil Rights Division at civilrights.justice.gov. Possible outcomes include:

  • Following up for more information,
  • Starting a mediation or investigation,
  • Directing you to another organization for further help, or
  • Informing you that we cannot help.

People and communities impacted by the incident may also still qualify for the relief outlined below.
