NORTHBOROUGH – The Northborough Junior Woman’s Club recently donated resources regarding domestic violence to the Northborough Police Department.
NOW SAVE, which is short for Northboro Organizes with Safety Against Violence Education, is a committee under the Junior Woman’s Club. The group has created several pieces of literature to help victims.
“We are grateful for the work and time the members of the Northborough Junior Woman’s Club have put into this project over the past couple of years,” said Police Chief Bill Lyver.
According to Lyver, the department began partnering with the club after they were contacted by member Jeri Baily.
One of the pieces of information that was created was a business card with contact information for resources like the police department and Family and Youth Services.
Baily presented Lyver and the department with folders containing inserts that identify numerous agencies and organizations that provide both resources and support to victims.
According to Lyver, Northborough officers will provide the packets to people in situations when these resources and this support is needed.
“The NJWC is very grateful to Chief Lyver for his ongoing support, professionalism and encouragement of these very important endeavors for our town,” said Baily.
