CANTON -- Funding of $20,000 will be going to the domestic violence helping agency Renewal House for improvements to their headquarters building on Chapel Street in Canton.
Assemblywoman Addie J. Russell (D – Theresa) made the announcement at Renewal House’s annual recognition dinner on Wednesday night.
Renewal House for Victims of Family Violence provides services to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. Funds will be used to provide a generator and a cooling system at their Safe Shelter.
“October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and Renewal House is an exemplary agency that provides critical services to domestic violence victims,” said Russell. “I am pleased to be able to help them with much needed capital for building improvements that will help them enhance their services.”
Since 1983, Renewal House has provided safe sheltering for victims of domestic violence, the only agency in St. Lawrence County to do so.
“This is a key service of Renewal House. I want to help to insure that this specialized housing continues to be in good condition and has the necessary infrastructure to be efficient and comfortable for residents,” said Russell.
