The work is far from over for the Portage Family Abuse Prevention Centre. 

While their month-long awareness campaign targeting family violence officially ends today, executive director Penny Kelly says the battle is year round, and they'll continue forming partnerships with service organizations. 

 

Kelly adds they'll also be able to gauge how successful the campaign was upon completing a before-and-after type survey on awareness of the issue. 

 

Although Kelly deems the campaign a success, she encountered several people who were unaware of the severity of family violence in Portage.
