Peer Leadership Program
Break the Cycle is excited about our partnership with a group of 25 motivated and creative students at the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies (LACES). Already committed to being trained peer counselors at LACES, the students will apply their skills and insight to creating a project to spread awareness about domestic violence among teens in greater Los Angeles. Look out for updates and pictures from the students as this project develops, and learn more about LACES at www.lacesmagnet.com.
Public Education Campaign
Break the Cycle is launching a pubic education campaign in Los Angeles, CA and Washington, DC to prevent dating violence among Latino teens and young adults. In collaboration with local community organizations like El Nido Family Centers and La Clinica del Pueblo, Break the Cycle will promote resources and services available to young Latino victims of domestic violence and raise awareness among Latino youth to take action to prevent the onset of abusive relationships. The campaign will develop materials and radio public service announcements in Spanish and English to reach the diverse Latino community.
Legal Intervention
Break the Cycle has successfully intervened in a lawsuit to protect domestic violence victims' access to law enforcement, regardless of their immigration status. The ACLU of Southern California will represent Break the Cycle and two workers rights groups in this case. Click here for more information.
