Education and Outreach
Education and Outreach is the education and outreach component of the Asian Task Force Agasint Domestic Violence (ATASK). The goal is to increase awareness of the realities of family violence and engage community participation in preventing further abuse. Working together with systems, providers, community members, and families we can alter the current trend of desensitization to violence and oppression.
In addition to working with Asian community groups and youth, the Education and Outreach Department also provides workshops for a variety of communities including local and regional public schools, alternative programs, faith-based groups, universities, law enforcement, teachers, dentists, and health care professionals, and more! We believe that change cannot come from educating one community or one group of people. We must engage everyone.
Education and Outreach Staff are available to provide consultations and training with respect to the provision of culturally appropriate services in the field of domestic violence prevention. We are always interested in expanding our network and intensifying our outreach activities. We welcome requests for training and consultations.
