On Oct. 23, SCI Muncy's House of Hope organized its annual Domestic Violence Awareness Day. Treatment Specialist Jennifer Engel invited several guest speakers, and survivors, Rachel Farrow and Jaime Gatusky, provided powerful presentations to the inmate population. The keynote speaker, Heather Cattron of Office of Victim Advocate, spoke on OVA's responsibility, victims' rights, the Apology Bank and Inmate Victims of Abuse Rights.
The House of Hope is an inpatient abuse program, and its community members displayed their t-shirts as part of the Clothesline Project.
