“Commitment to Strength”

Jewelry designer Jennifer Leitzes has created the “Commitment to Strength”

Each hand-crafted piece hangs from a matching chain and is engraved with the words
justice, strength, hope, dignity and respect. The piece is available in silver and
yellow, white or rose gold.

the “Commitment to Strength” necklace as a special gift for yourself

30% of each charm sold will directly benefit Break the Cycle.

Bi-coastal Latino Public Education Campaign

This winter, Break the Cycle is launching a bi-coastal Latino public education
campaign. We will create a broad-based outreach and education campaign for

of Los Angeles and the District of Columbia.

Through this campaign, Break the Cycle hopes to educate and motivate
Latino youth to better understand the domestic violence resources
available within their communities and to take action to prevent the onset of abusive
relationships.
