- The Coordination Unit against Violence against Women of the Government Delegation has delivered to the Official College of Opticians and Optometrists the necessary material for the dissemination of the informative campaign
March 13, 2023. The head of the Coordination Unit of the Government Delegation, María Luisa Barreda, and the President of the Official College of Opticians and Optometrists of the Region, Ester Mainar Andreu, held a meeting to promote the involvement of the 455 existing establishments in the Region of Murcia in the ‘Violeta Point’ campaign and turn them into safe and trusted points in which to provide information on resources and services for the protection and assistance to victims of violence against women.
This collaboration of the Official College of Opticians and Optometrists allows the approach of information to get out of situations of violence to society, since optics establishments constitute habitual transit places of the citizens specialized in health care and make up an extensive ‘network’, since they have implementation in all municipalities of the Region of Murcia.
The cooperation will be complemented by training and awareness-raising activities on violence against women in any of its forms aimed at the professional members of the Official College and the staff of the establishments, so that they can channel the requests for information or needs they detect to the specialized resources for advice and direct assistance.
