#113 Hope in Hell: Abuse & the Law
With Cyndy Morin & Carrie McManus
1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men experience domestic violence.
This violence is not just physical. And it’s an epidemic that can’t be ignored.
Alberta has the 3rd highest rate in Canada with Red Deer having the highest per capita rate in the whole country.It is close to home for all of us.
If it isn’t affecting you directly, then you definitely know someone who is not safe.
In today’s episode I am joined by family lawyer Cyndy Morin of Resolve Legal Group and Carrie McManus, Director of Innovation & Programs with Sagesse to discuss how the law intersects with abuse.
