New Bedford Police Department collecting cell phones for domestic violence victims

“October is #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth.

New Bedford police and the Women’s Center are partnering up to place boxes at the stations around the city to collect used cell phones. The purpose of this is to provide DV victims with a cell phone in case of emergencies.

We will be extending this until the end of November. If you have any questions, please contact us at (508) 991-6300 Ext. 79470.”-New Bedford Police Department.
