On the Ground: Local Violence Against Women Primary Prevention Programs in
Action

Wednesday, July 25, 2007
2 PM Eastern

Throughout the country, people have been implementing local primary
prevention programs to end violence against women. Many of these programs
have learned valuable lessons about creating support, shifting social norms
and building a local movement.

In this Prevention Connection Web Conference, four programs will share the
lessons they have learned through their efforts. These programs are helping
to build the evidence base for violence against women prevention.
