Besides a march Friday on Main Street, the Domestic Violence Task Force in Haines is creating a moving display to bring attention to the issue and lobbying the state to ramp up prosecution in abuse cases.

The march starts 11:30 a.m. Friday, March 16 at the Haines bank and ends at the library with speeches and Native dancing, said Jackie Mazeikas, hired last fall as domestic violence health educator by Southeast Alaska Regional Health Consortium.
