For Victims of Domestic Violence in Sweetwater County, There is Help

This is Domestic Violence Awareness month. While a candlelight vigil was just held this week in rememberance of the victims, Terri Lynn Green with the YWCA Support and Safe House, wants those who are still living with violence in Sweetwater County to know that there is help.






Green says it is hard to tell exactly how prevalent domestic violence is in Sweetwater County.






The primary goal of the YWCA Support and Safe House, according to Green, is not to break up families, but to simply end the violence. She also says that victims of domestic violence are not just women, but also includes children and, in many cases, men.
