At our meeting on 13 November 2012, the Rotary Club of Road Town donated $1,000 to the Family Support Network.

 

This non-profit/non-governmental organization provides support, counsel and aid to victims of domestic violence and abuse. In addition,  FSN works to sensitize key agencies such as the police and social services to encourage responsive and professional handling of reported cases. The organization also seeks to educate members of the general public on how to recognise and avoid unhealthy, abusive relationships.

Family Support Network (FSN) was established in 1989 as a volunteer organization under the auspices of the BVI Christian Council to support families in distress. Today, FSN operates indirectly under the Christian Council as a nonprofit organization and employs a professional staff.

 The 24 hour help line is 499-0999; FSN office 494-7622; or you can email them at familysn1@yahoo.com
