Funding depreciate for DV shelters
Even as cases of domestic violence are hogging headlines, federal grants in the direction to contain and sensitize the issue are reportedly on the decline.
At least seven domestic-violence shelters and three legal-aid agencies that are funded by the Arizona Foundation for Legal Services & Education will be unable to help potentially hundreds of victims of domestic violence in Arizona.
The Arizona Republic reports that shelters may be forced to close down in want of grants as low as $17,000. In fact, domestic-violence shelters are making up their losses through donations from affiliated thrift stores!
Not that it surprises us, considering that when the hawks wage a masculine war by not keeping the balances well, they can only leave the victimized women behind in unkept shelters.
