Chat with Mayor Matt
Mount Vernon Domestic Violence Unit
Wrapping the series on domestic violence awareness, City of Mount Vernon Law Director, Rob Broeren, Assistant Law Director, Brittany Whitney, and Client Advocate, Ellie Cline discuss the City's role in handling domestic violence cases, identify how the City Law Office staff are helping victims become survivors, and outline how their work with other agencies in the community are helping to protect those who are affected by domestic violence, stalking and intimidation, and those who feel powerless in those kinds of situations.
"If you see something, say something," says our panelists. You don't have to be the victim to report the violence. If the situation warrants immediate attention and is an emergency, call 9-1-1. Those who aren't sure may reach out to the City's Law Office at (740) 393-9562.
