The Office on Violence against Women Program at Kipnuk, Alaska hosted the 3rd Annual Domestic Violence Awareness Walkathon on October 21st 2022. We invited the Bethel Troopers to walk with us. Sergeant Widmier gave a speech and Investigator Miller walked with the community, along with the local elders Elsie Carl and Agnes Attie and the Behavioral Health Trainee Loretta Carl. The elders all gave a speech.
