Domestic Violence Funds

NEW MEXICO (AP) -- ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - The U.S. Department of Justice has released $200,000 in funding for the New Mexico Coalition Against Domestic Violence.

Democratic Sen. Jeff Bingaman of New Mexico says the money will go to help the Albuquerque-based coalition expand its outreach efforts to Hispanics across the state.

He says that will be done through a multimedia Spanish-language public education campaign to raise awareness and prevent domestic violence in the community.
