The latest episode of our Intimate Partner Violence awareness podcast, “Silence Broken,” is now available at LanarkLeedsToday.ca.
This week we speak with Emily Murray, legal director of Luke’s Place to speak about the Family Court Supporter Worker program.
Murray explains the vital service they provide for victims of IPV.
Among the topics discussed is the change of landscape since the 86 recommendations from the inquest into ending IPV were released.
Murray says her organization has been invited to many events, round tables, and discussions since the jury’s findings two years ago.
You can learn more about the role of Family Court Support Workers and how they’ve evolved since their inception by listening to the podacast with Erin Lee and Bob Perreault below.
