Webinar Description: Outreach has often been the principle mechanism by which the battered women's movement has raised public awareness. Yet reaching out and working in partnership with local underserved communities has been challenging for many in the movement to end domestic violence. The webinar will examine the history of the evolution of outreach and the particular ways in which it was handled when working with underserved communities. Following a clarification of terms, the presentation will outline why it is not only important to reach out but also build collaborative partnerships so that there is community ownership in ending domestic violence. Using various examples, Sujata will outline both successful and unsuccessful methods and suggest some was to overcome challenges.
