SAFENET Presents PCADV Award to Senator Earll
State Senator Jane Earll was honored at a luncheon on last month in State College by the Pennsylvania Coalition against Domestic Violence (PCADV). SafeNet will present Senator Earll with her award on Friday October 20, 1:30pm at the SafeNet Center, 1702 French Street, Erie, Pa. Senator Earll has been selected by Safenet, because of her stance on safety and justice for victims of domestic violence and in particular her leadership in amending the Protection from Abuse Legislation that allows judges to require longer periods of protection and other safety measures. According to Linda King, Executive Director of Safenet, "Senator Earll has been a voice for victims of Domestic Violence on the state level, without her dedication to this issue the amendment to the Protection from Abuse Legislation would not have passed." SafeNet is not a homeless shelter, but a safe and confidential place specifically for men, women and children who are victims of domestic violence. From every city and township in the area, victims come to SafeNet seeking support, safety and shelter from physical abuse and threats of violence occurring at home. After more that 30 years of providing shelter and many other supportive services, SafeNet knows first-hand that there is hope and there is help. For interview with Linda King, Executive Director or any Staff member of Safenet contact Rick Liebel, Public Relations and Development Director at 455- 1774 extension 234 or email at rliebel@safeneterie.org Contact: Rick Liebel |
