Objective: This study aims to explore the factors that influenced help-seeking to the One-stop Crisis Centers (OCCs) by the victims of violence against women (VAW) in Bangladesh.

Methods: A qualitative document analysis of 146 case studies of victims from OCCs of different tertiary hospitals was done. Data were retrieved from the official Newsletters published between 2008 to 2018.

Result: Four distinct themes emerged which influenced victims' help-seeking to OCCs: i) situational crisis, ii) social network, iii) legal resources, and iv) victims support system.

Conclusion: Recognizing the influencing factors of help-seeking to OCCs by the victims of VAW might help the policymakers to identify the most important gatekeepers and channels to OCCs. Greater disclosure and helpseeking can be achieved through greater community indulgence.
