October 4, 2019
The month of October has been designated as National Domestic Violence Month.
First designated in 1981, the movement has grown to offer numerous support services as well as laws to support and protect victims of domestic violence.
CAPSEA (Citizens Against Physical, Sexual, & Emotional Abuse) is at the forefront in Elk County providing services, advocacy, and shelter for victims when needed.
The Elk County Sheriff’s Office asks that we pause this month, to reflect on the seriousness of domestic violence, and develop a deeper understanding of the trauma that is involved, and its impact on individuals and society. To learn more, or if you are in need of assistance, please visit CAPSEA’s website at https://capsea.org where you can find much needed information.
