Yesterday people in Halton Region were devastated to hear the news of the murder of Laura Grant in Burlington. Today we received word that her husband has been charged with murder.
This incident serves as a reminder that domestic violence remains an issue in our community no matter how affluent or challenged it may seem. This is an issue that needs to be dealt with head on.
But this should also serve others as a reminder that if you are in a relationship based in emotional violence, verbal or physical abuse that there are resources for you available.
There are places you can reach out to which include Halton Womens Place , Halton Womens Centre and others like Hum – We Womens Hub .
Dont be silent. Reach out.
