WATERBURY— A community activist rallied a group of residents to come together Saturday in what they called a show of sisterhood, strength and empowerment. Vernail Walker, along with her organization The Battered Women Safe Territory Opportunity to Progress, held its 8th Domestic Violence Walk. About 10 people joined Walker for the event, which wasn't a walk this year but a lunch and events at New Opportunities Inc. on North Elm Street.
