The campaign efforts for Marsy’s Law for Nevada kicked off the week of February 19th - uniting victims, law enforcement, civic leaders and advocacy...
As we spread the word about Marsy’s Law for Nevada crime victims’ rights effort we meet so many wonderful residents, civic leaders and members of organizations. As we stand up for the rights of victims of crime, we also stand alongside a host of important and impactful organizations making a difference every day across Nevada. Many of these work directly with victims of crime and domestic violence.
October marked Domestic Violence Awareness Month across America. According to the 2016 report by the Nevada Coalition to END Domestic and Sexual Violence (NCEDSV):
Marsy’s Law for Nevada team members were on hand as civic leaders including the cities of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson presented proclamations recognizing the seriousness of domestic violence and thanking the organizations helping the victims escape to safe shelters, receive guidance, access counseling, and start new lives. We applaud the individuals and organizations who are helping save lives and stop the cycle of domestic violence.
