Creativity for Peace continues
to build on its Transforming
Conflict curriculum. In January
2015 we piloted Peace
Ambassadors, a leadership
program for Santa Fe young women
that is focused on social
activism, project management and
public speaking. Initial
evaluation showed that
participants across our youth
programs gained skills needed to
become agents of change in their
communities, grew in confidence
and capacity to use these
skills, and forged new
friendships and relationship
with young women from diverse
backgrounds. |

Survivors of domestic violence
are safer while their abusers
are participating in a
batterer’s intervention program.
Any lack of Spanish language
batters intervention programs is
a major gap in a community
coordinated response to domestic
violence. The project is a 52
week socio-educational
batterer’s intervention group
facilitated by two well trained
Spanish speaking men. Our goals
are to change abusive partner’s
behaviors regarding conflict,
prevent reoccurrence of partner
violence, and change abusive
partner attitudes toward women. |
