In response to a recent increase in violent domestic violence incidents across the region, Sheriff Nick Cocchi is renewing his collaboration with the YWCA of Western Massachusetts to raise funds to combat this alarming trend and support victims.
In recent months, Western Massachusetts has witnessed several high-profile domestic violence cases, tragically resulting in loss of life. The upcoming 2025 Sheriff’s Shuffle race/walk is dedicated to benefiting the YWCA, with the goal of empowering and aiding victims of domestic violence, and intervening before situations escalate to deadly outcomes.
