Mr. Clark was joined by Probation Officer Michael Kelly, Probation Officer Olivia Nambi, Associate Probation Officer Lidia Lafitt, and Probation Case Specialist Rebecca Malynn.
"The probation employees were proud to represent Newburyport District Court to not only take a stance against domestic violence, but to raise awareness and assist in changing the narrative of such a fundamental topic," said Ms. Nambi.
