Stories From Domestic Violence Survivors Are Currently Displayed Across The County In October

Montgomery County Domestic Violence Coordinating Council announced that during the month of October, stories from domestic violence victims/survivors who live in Montgomery County will be on display along with pairs of shoes representing each victim.
