Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

["Aline Jesus Rafi" <>]

To add to Linda's recommendation, Arte Sana is having a conference in August 
in San Antonio, TX

Nuestras Voces Conference:
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.

> Hi all-
>
>
>
> I'm looking for resources (manuals, curriculums, guidelines, and so on)
> that community rape crisis centers could use to implement support groups
> for Latina/o survivors of sexual violence.
>
>
>
> I am looking for more than a simple English to Spanish translation of
> existing support group materials, because direct translations do not
> take into account differences in cultures.  I would like resources that
> consider cultural dynamics, concerns and issues.  Having said that I
> understand that Latina/o is a broad term and that every Latina/o
> survivor is not the same; I am looking for a starting place for this
> project.
>
>
>
> We have received feedback from rape crisis centers in North Carolina
> that they would like information on this topic and if anyone is willing
> to share their material it would be GREATLY appreciated!
>
>
>
> If people want to contact me privately off of the listserv I would be
> willing to compile a final list of resources I receive and post that to
> the group.
