Cellular provider helps Safe Haven's clients

MILFORD — Cellular One has provided as promised. Only a little over a month ago, Cellular One contacted Safe Haven to assist Pike County’s one and only crisis center for domestic abuse and sexual assault agency by collecting phones. Many of the phones go to domestic violence victims for use in emergency situations, with others sold to provide funds for their free services. “It’s great to have local representation with national coverage” stated Erwin Guberman. He is thrilled to be in a position where he can be part of the community. Some of the phones are provided to domestic violence victims or potential victims to call 911 in the event of an emergency. A cell phone can be programmed to call 911, regardless of whether the user has purchased a service plan or not. The phone simply needs to be charged. 911 services are automatic on any home or business phone where previous phone services had been in place, whether there is a dial tone or not.
