The Winnipeg Police Service has added a new page to its website to help those suffering domestic violence.
The force says it’s aware many people living through abuse, or watching a loved one living through it, have difficulty knowing where to turn or where to find proper information.
The website offers information including how the WPS is able to help, how to make safety plans, how to talk with children, as well as possible legal avenues.
It also lists contact details for various shelters, counselling and legal services.
