JOHN DAY – October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Heart of Grant County Advocate Rayme Lacey was on KJDY’s Coffee Time recently, and shared a heartwarming story of the community coming together for a survivor of domestic violence:

“We had a client who was in shelter and she was able to get into an apartment. She had nothing for that apartment. We made a post on Facebook, and many people in the community stepped up and donated everything to furninsh the apartment for her and get started.”

If you or anyone you know is a survivor of domestic violence, and you just need to talk, call the Heart of Grant County hotline at 541-620-1342. You can also email info@heartofgrantcounty.org.
