Every year in Ontario women and children are murdered by a partner or ex-partner. Domestic violence is the abuse of power and control in intimate relationships. Whether that abuse is physical, sexual, emotional, financial, spiritual or social, it affects thousands of people in Northumberland County every day. That affects our community's strength and prosperity both today and in the future as we deal with the outcome of children being raised in abusive homes.Domestic homicides do not just happen everywhere else. They happen here in our County too. The last woman murdered by an intimate partner in Northumberland County died in 2008. Other women have been murdered since then in our community by men who knew them well. Many women and children are living with abuse right now. You can help to stop abuse in our communities and in our County. Violence against women continues right here at home and it take every person to stop it.
