About Us

Valentina’s Pizza is a domestic abuse hotline that allows those experiencing domestic violence to seek help from the police or EMS in an emergency through a discreet manner by "ordering pizza."

How It Works

Different aspects of the pizza will represent the type of situation you are in and what kind of help you need, so our team behind the scenes can provide you the help you need. Please review the information below to get an idea of what kind of order will be best for you.

Navigate to the Order page to be connected with a chat bot to order your pizza. Once you fill in your address, the police will be notified. The rest of your pizza order will tell us whether you need an ambulance and if there are weapons or children involved.

Our Story

Four women of color, inspired by the story in the video embedded below, created this website: valentinas.tech for PearlHacks in February 2022. In a world that is always technologically advancing, it is more commonplace to place an order through the website of a pizza restaurant, rather than making a phone call. Valentina's authentic pizza, is a front for a chat bot hotline to contact authorities in domestic violence situations where a person may not be able to directly contact 911.
