Weaving Communities Together is a project of the Nevada Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence Native American and Indigenous Initiative. Our goal is to bring together community domestic and sexual violence agencies, native services agencies and community stakeholders to bridge conditions that limit our abilities to provide services to all domestic and sexual violence survivors.
Join us for a virtual two-part series to explore the foundations of culturally appropriate victim-survivor centered services with a focus on domestic violence, addictions and healing.
