Arte Sana is pleased to
announce "NUESTRAS VOCES / OUR
VOICES: Collaboration and Transformation en la Comunidad.”
The goals of this two-day capacity-building event include:
eliminating victim service barriers and engaging our communities as
active partners in prevention, risk reduction and advocacy efforts.
The conference also aims to improve outreach to marginalized Latina@
victims of sexual and intimate partner violence, and to help build
effective connections with Latin@ communities at large.
Please join Latina
victim advocates and allies from across the nation in beautiful San
Antonio, Texas to share, learn and be inspired!
