New Bedford Police Department wants your extra phones for domestic violence victims

“Do you have a phone that you’re not using? Did you know that those who are struggling with domestic violence often have phones that are being controlled by their abuser?

The phone you donate might be the lifeline that someone needs to place a much-needed call for help.This month, the NBPD is partnering up with the “Women’s Center” to get emergency phones into the hands of people who need them.

If you have one that you can donate, please bring it by police headquarters on Rockdale Ave. Thank you!!”-City of New Bedford Police Department.
