During October, staff from the DDOC's Hares Corner Probation & Parole Domestic Violence Unit came together to spread a little Halloween happiness to families living in shelters. Our dedicated team collected and donated pumpkins, candy, and other Halloween treats to CHILD, Inc.

🎃We had a great time, spreading Halloween cheer at Trunk-or-Treats across Kent & Sussex Counties! Events like these give our officers a chance to step outside their everyday duties, build positive relationships, & connect with the communities they proudly serve.
