A huge thank you goes out to one of our long-standing members of the coalition, Pat Reppucci, who has spent considerable time on updating this handbook. Pat’s attention to detail and perseverance made this resource for our community possible. We truly appreciate all your hard work.
WCNV is a coalition that consists of residents, town employees, survivors, and professionals, who have joined together to promote healthy relationships through education, communication, trust, and mutual respect.
If you, or someone you know, is a victim of domestic violence, please call 911 if in immediate danger, or call SafeLink hotline at 1-877-785-2020. We all deserve to live without fear, and knowing that there are services available to help, may offer some comfort. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
