Over 50 people participated in Wrangell’s “Choose Respect” last week. Wrangell was among 123 Alaskan communities that held events March 29 to raise awareness of domestic violence and sexual abuse in the state.
Participants marched from Evergreen Elementary School to the ferry terminal and back along Church Street in Wrangell, holding “Choose Respect” signs and bracing the rain.
Public Health and the Healthy Wrangell Coalition sponsored the march, which is part of the Gov. Sean Parnell’s “Choose Respect” campaign. Deputy Commissioner of the Alaska Department of Corrections Carmen Gutierrez was in Wrangell last week to participate in the march.
