Recent raffle raises $2,300 to fight domestic violence

Proceeds from the recent Turning Point raffle will go toward helping victims of family violence, sexual assault, incest and child abuse. The money helps purchase clothes, food, transportation and relocation as well as court fees.

The Turning Point, Lincoln County’s self-help center, is an agency whose overall mission is to reduce domestic violence. It provides services such as short-term crisis intervention, support, advocacy, shelter, and referral. The organization strives to minimize the pain and trauma that result from domestic violence and offers preventive education programs in the schools and community.
