Alianza Nacional de Campesinas Inc

Violence Against Women Alianza works with various projects related to Violence against Women. One of our projects is based in California on violence against campesinas and ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) with Futures Without Violence and Lideres Campesinas as they work with health clinics. Another project is from Esperanza United, a pass through grant to work on gender based violence in the workplace against campesinas, specifically on Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault from Culturally Specific Populations in South Florida and Oregon. Alianza is also working with OVW (Office on Violence Against Women) and Campesinos Sin Fronteras on gender based violence in Arizona which focuses on enhancing Culturally Specific Services for Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking. Alianza has worked with Latina campesinas and campesinas from Mexican and Central American Indigenous communities. All this work is done in historically underserved and socially disadvantaged rural communities.
