Domestic Violence & the Hispanic Community Forum
The Morris County Prosecutor's Office led a forum to provide information and offer assistance to victims of domestic violence in the Hispanic communities. The forum on March 9 featured talks by representatives of the Jersey Battered Women's Service, the Morris County Office of Hispanic Affairs, the Morris County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and the Morris County Department of Human Services. Officials told a crowd of more than 100 people their goal is to make programs more accessible by offering help in Spanish. The videos below are the highlights.
