PowerRating -- Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown was in Baltimore on Monday to highlight a $400,000 grant for the Safe Haven Visitation Project, an anti-domestic violence project. The money, federal funds distributed by the Governor's Office of Crime Control and Prevention, will pay for a pilot program creating a supervised visitation center where families affected by domestic violence can meet with their children in supervised settings. City Council President Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and Del. Barbara A. Robinson joined Brown, who visited the House of Ruth. Seventy-five people died in Maryland in 2008 as a result of domestic violence, the lieutenant governor's office said, up from 52 in 2007.
