The Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence

This multi-media workshop will share lessons learned and the promising programming designed to produce culturally meaningful advocacy, organizing and the development of Latina women leaders with minimal additional resources or policy changes to shelter-based programs. Through the stories of advocates working with farmworking and brush gathering women from Latin American countries, we will learn how to take advocacy work to a whole new level. We do this by sharing how to support survivors in creating their own self-advocacy path and facilitating community connections that address poverty, create economic opportunities, break isolation, provide opportunities and support women after the violence and/or while they are still surviving violence
