Genesis marks Domestic Violence Awareness Month

The Pal-Item notes today that Genesis of the YWCA officials are planning events to remember victims and raise awareness during Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

A candlelight vigil is planned for 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Richmond Municipal Building to remember those who have died and celebrate those who have endured. "It's really about remembering those that have lost their lives and those that have been victims of domestic violence and making a point to remember them," said Becky Studebaker, executive director of the YWCA.
