Fredericton non-profit aims to help children caught in intimate partner violence situations
EDITOR'S NOTE: As part of our series looking at the issue of intimate partner violence in the province, we spoke with a New Brunswick advocate and survivor who shared her story. We also spoke with Lyne Chantal Boudreau, the provincial minister responsible for women's equality, about how the province is addressing the issue. Here is a look at what support workers in the province are noticing in terms of trends, and how they cope with the field. Children are some of the invisible victims of intimate partner violence in Canada, and a Fredericton non-profit is aiming to help them feel safe while working through difficult feelings.

In the last few years, it has also implemented a program for the children of survivors. Story continues below advertisement 'When we're looking at the whole family, we're seeing the influence of domestic violence isn't just on the protective parent, on the mom, the children also are experiencing some negative effects as well,' said Meaghan Ross, the child and youth guidance co-ordinator at Liberty Lane. Sometimes, abusers use children to continue their abuse by passing messages through them to the survivors. Other times, they threaten or attempt to withhold access to children, which causes harm for both the survivors and the young ones caught in the middle. 'It impacts their emotional safety, right, and they don't know who to trust. There's a sense of shame, there's a sense of self-responsibility,' Ross said. Liberty Lane works to help children process their feelings and understand how to regulate their emotions. However, the work has its challenges, especially when it comes to family law and child protection systems. 'When you feel like you've done a lot with the client and maybe things didn't go the way that you want to and the children are put into care, that's probably one of the hardest situations,' Ross said. For more on this story, watch the video above. Anyone experiencing intimate partner violence can call 911 in the case of an emergency. Support is available in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick by dialling 211.

Liberty Lane sparks Festival celebration
Last year's Cambridgeshire victor was a fine second to recent Lockinge hero Lead Artist in Group Three company at Newmarket in October and was making it third time lucky this term. After blowing away the cobwebs in the Doncaster Mile, Karl Burke's five-year-old gelding was a staying-on third behind The Foxes in the Group Two Huxley Stakes at Chester and was sent off at 3-1 for this 10-furlong contest. Market leader Silver Knott was prominent at the two-furlong pole but the writing was on the wall for his supporters when Liberty Lane loomed up alongside him. Clifford Lee kicked for home and that proved a decisive move, as he got first run on Meydaan and was always doing just enough to hold on by a neck. Lee told Racing TV: 'He did everything right today, he jumped nicely, I was always in a lovely position, going a nice gallop. 'He can be quite keen, so because he was nice and relaxed, I thought we were going to have a nice run. 'Going through the three to the two, once I switched out and made headway a little bit, he's travelled really well and seen the trip out nicely. 'He obviously won the Cambridgeshire off top weight and this is a step up to Listed class, so this will probably be his best career effort so far, he's improved and I think he'll probably even stay further.' Liberty Lane's best form has come with a bit of cut underfoot and Lee felt the watered good ground at the Sussex track suited his mount well enough. He added: 'I felt like it was just riding on the easy side, it was kicking up a little bit, but maybe if I was on a different horse, it would feel a bit quicker. 'For my lad, I knew cantering to the start he would enjoy this ground today. 'He travels so well and that soft ground probably just slows them down a little bit and it also stops the other horses as well. 'But he's a lovely, big horse and we're looking forward to the rest of the season with him.'

Liberty Lane sparks Festival celebration
Liberty Lane got back to winning ways in a likeable manner in the BetGoodwin Festival Stakes at Goodwood, claiming a first Listed-class success in the process.
