DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH WAS OBSERVED IN FAIRMONT ON MONDAY. A PANEL MADE UP OF LAW ENFORCEMENT. JUDICIAL AND VICTIM ADVOCATES WERE ON HAND TO MAKE PRESENTATIONS AND ANSWER QUESTIONS ON THE SUBJECT. ONE OF THE PANELISTS WAS ANNA GRONEWALD FOREMERLY OF LEWISVILLE WHO LOST BOTH HER HUSBAND CHET AND DAUGHTER ASHLEY TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN 2010. SHORTLY AFTER THAT SHE WAS TRYING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN FRONT OF THE MINNESOTA STATE LEGISLATURE. SHE GAVE LIVE TESTIMONY IN THE SENATE AND WRITTEN TESTIMONY TO THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WHICH EVENTUALLY HELPED TO INSPIRE THE OMNIBUS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE BILL WHICH BECAME KNOWN AS "ASHLEY AND CHET'S LAW" AFTER PASSAGE
ANNA GRONEWALD CONTINUES TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE ABOUT DOMESTIC VIOLENTCE SPEAKING BEFORE MANY GROUPS AND MAKING DIFFERENT PRESENTATIONS. SHE ALSO SAID BEING A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF CADA HOUSE- A WOMEN'S SHELTER IN MANKATO- HAS BEEN VERY REWARDING FOR HER.
