Alianza’s Call for Recipes/Call for Artists!
Alianza will be publishing a Latino
Cookbook with all proceeds going to our organization, the National Latino
Alliance for the Elimination of Domestic Violence.
With Latinos being from over
20-plus countries, we are certain this cookbook will be filled to the brim with
recipes full of heritage and taste! In addition, it will be a most lucrative
fundraiser for our organization as well as a wonderful marketing tool in
getting our name out there as well as other agencies—since everyone will be
recognized underneath their recipe. Indeed, this cookbook will be more than a cookbook!
We encourage everyone to join in our efforts and are seeking survivors, victims,
advocates, organizations, and individuals who simply care about our cause.

TRAINING
for FACILITATORS on the USE of ALIANZA’S CURRICULUM AND SUPPLEMENTAL GUIDE FOR CONDUCTING SUPPORT AND EMPOWERMENT
GROUPS FOR LATINA SURVIVORS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Through
an OVW grant, Alianza created the Curriculum
and Supplemental Guide for Conducting Support and Empowerment Groups with
Latina Survivors of Domestic Violence in 2005. After revising the curriculum, we are
gearing up to conduct a series of regional trainings in the use of this curriculum
guide, in the spring of 2009. During these trainings the curriculum guide will
be provided to participants and will be the focus of the trainings. The
trainings are free. As an OVW
grantee you may use your OVW funds to cover your travel in order to attend
these trainings.
The training has been designed for
facilitators and future facilitators of support groups for Latinas. Our goal is to provide the facilitator,
practical and culturally proficient tools to enhance and further develop their
skills facilitating support groups for Latina survivors of domestic violence. The trainings will be facilitated in
Spanish. Space is limited please
register as soon as possible.

People from Across Country and Puerto Rico
Attend Alianza’s National Conference
More than 170
