Community Forum on Domestic Violence
Community Forum on Domestic Violence Jan 30
Arlington Health and Human Services and
Arlington Police will host a community forum on domestic violence on Thursday,
January 30th, 7:00 p.m. at Arlington Town Hall. The event will include a panel
made up of agencies working every day to prevent domestic violence in
Arlington: Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, REACH Beyond Domestic
Violence, Emerge and Arlington First Step. In light of the incident that
occurred in Arlington on Newland Road last November, officials seek to partner
with the community to be able to increase awareness and create open dialogue on
this critical issue. The forum will focus on developing strategies that anyone
in Arlington can use to identify, respond to and help victims. The community
will be invited to provide input during a question and answer segment. For more
information contact: Christine Bongiorno, Director of Health and Human
Services, 781-316-3171, cbongiorno@town.arlington.ma.us
