IMG 0830The Violence Against Women act is up for renewal in congress next week. The problem has been brought home to us in Sonoma County with three murder-suicide cases last month involving married couples. In part one of the interview KRCB’s Adia White spoke with Madeline Keegan O'Connell,  CEO of Sonoma County’s YWCA, about the prevalence of domestic violence in our community.

In part two of the interview, Keegan O'Connell talks about what to do if you suspect someone you know is at risk.

To report domestic abuse or access services visit the YWCA website or call their cirsis hotline at (707) 546-1234
