DALLAS There is an issue often unspoken about in parts of southern Dallas, including zip code 75216: domestic violence.
It’s an epidemic and an issue that is sometimes underreported.
“One out of every three women in 75216 will know domestic violence on an ongoing basis,” said Jan Langbein, CEO of Genesis Women’s Shelter and Support.
Advocates helping women across North Texas recognize the problem and the challenge finding resources for vulnerable victims.

GORHAM â New Trails Bureau Chief Craig Rennie of the state Department of Natural and Cultural Resources met on Monday evening with select board members Chairman Mike Waddell and Adam White as well as Town Manager Denise Vallee. Vice Chair Judy LeBlanc had said she would not be present.
Rennie was accompanied by District I supervisor Clint Savage of Gorham, who acted as interim chief for seven months after former chief Chris Gamache resigned. Rennie took up his new duties on May 21, after heâd left his post at the Department of Environmental Services Wetlands Bureau.
He met with Waddell earlier that day to discuss how very responsive ATV enthusiasts have been to the new riding routine. As hoped, ATVers have been parking above the black trestle on Route 16 and have not been loading and unloading them on the state-owned parking lot on Route 2.
