Provincial campaign on to prevent domestic violence
The province is urging people to become “champions” as part of a campaign to prevent domestic violence. “Love Shouldn’t Hurt” will see all champions initiate one activity a year that engages the public, such as a community talk, walk or run, or a video screening. They’ll receive training, a tool kit, promotional items and up to $500 from the Crime Prevention Association of New Brunswick.
