There was a time when we worked closely with the Lexington Police Department (we were on a grant <br /> together!). For several years now, a sister program called Domestic Violence Services Network has <br /> included the LPD in their training and coordinated community response because Lexington is part of <br /> the Concord District Court (where DVSN focuses their work). Our service area includes Lexington as <br /> our services offering goes a bit beyond the DVSN model. We partner a lot. <br /> Our website has a lot of information about our programs. Our service is 27 cities and towns - mostly <br /> Middlesex County plus 4 communities in Norfolk - including Lexington. Stats for DV in Lexington <br /> should be available from the LPD. They can talk with you about restraining orders in effect, calls for <br /> service, including repeat calls, and how they work with DVSN or other resources. <br /> As for how a community can do more in the areas you describe, I wonder if you would like a visit from <br /> my colleague Jessica and maybe someone from DVSN (we work with Allison Tarmy a lot). Their <br /> website is www.dvsn.org. They are also on Facebook @DVSNInc. <br /> Let me know if you want me to make any introductions here or at DVSN. Happy to help! <br /> Hope all is well.
