YPD VIOLENT CRIME PRVENTION TIP OF THE WEEK: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Domestic Violence is more than just a “family problem” it is a serious crime. The men and women of Yarmouth Police Department recognize that domestic violence is a major problem on Cape Cod and throughout the United States. Each year more than two million women are victims of domestic violence and one million children are abused.
If you are a victim of domestic violence, now is the time to protect yourself. Calling the police, telling a friend, or contacting a shelter is the first step. Please don’t wait until it is too late. Many studies show that an uninterrupted cycle of violence only worsens over time. Hotlines and shelters are here on Cape Cod to be used and counseling is available. It’s as close as a phone call and it’s free. Let us help you. Release and mugshots furnished by Yarmouth Police
