Dear Editor,Based on the article “Homewood domestic violence agency surprised by Ingalls contract termination,” posted on your website on Dec. 4, 2018, UChicago Medicine Ingalls Memorial Hospital is ending its contract with the South Suburban Family Shelter in favor of a contract with the YWCA of Metropolitan Chicago. This is disheartening. The South Suburban Family Shelter is one of the only domestic violence assistance programs in the Southland. The organization has been helping families in the South Suburbs since 1980. The staff members live in the communities they serve and have strong relationships with local law . . .
