Turf is Not a Four Letter Word, Part II: Advancing Violence Against Women
Prevention Partnerships

Tuesday, June 24, 2008
02:00 PM - 03:30 PM Eastern DST

This web conference is a repeat of the popular web conference held in May
2008. Different guests will discuss turf issues in violence against women
prevention.

Effective prevention efforts involve many partners from different sectors,
disciplines and organizations. While these partners agree on the end goal of
preventing violence against women, many conflicts may arise, including those
associated with "turf." As part of Prevention Connection's focus on building
coalitions and networks, this web conference will explore how to overcome
challenges in struggles over turf in violence against women partnerships.

* Mariame Kaba, Adult Ally and Supporter, Young Women's Action
Team <http://www.youngwomensactionteam.org> , Chicago, IL
