“Just For The Health Of It” Community Discussions with Dorathy Martel

Episode 2: Talking with Dorathy Martel, Executive Director of Next Step Domestic Violence Project

October 2, 2020

What does Next Step Domestic Violence Project do? What is abusive behavior?  What happens when someone calls the helpline number? How has the pandemic impacted cases and reports of domestic violence in our area? How can we help? Dorathy and I spend a few minutes talking about this important subject and how it impacts the Deer Isle-Stonington community.
