Charity campaign targets domestic abuse

A FIVE-YEAR plan to tackle domestic violence and limit its impact on children will be launched this week by a new Irish charity.

Aoibhneas Foundation chief executive, Dr Mimi M Kim, said the organisation will focus on prevention, intervention and post-crisis development of victims.

“It is intended that programmes will be developed around these three pillars, adapted to the three major client groups, victims, perpetrators and the public,” she said.
