This document analyzes the impact of culturally appropriate outreach initiatives on raising awareness of domestic violence issues among South Asian communities in New Jersey. It finds that such initiatives increased attendance at outreach and training events from 2014 to 2015 and helped the organization Manavi assist more survivors, including more from outside of New Jersey. Specifically, engaging local religious institutions like Hindu temples, community gatherings, and providing literature in multiple languages proved effective at reaching diverse South Asian cultures. Cultural sensitivity training for law enforcement also helped provide contextual understanding of domestic violence issues for these communities.

Sexual and domestic violence is pervasive across cultures, socio-economic status, ethnicity and age groups, with no boundaries. Women and girls suffer in silence, without knowing their rights, available resources, or how to access legal and psychosocial services. How can we, as RPFs and Rotarians, support women and girls to lead lives free of violence? Presenters shared program models from Bolivia, India, and Australia.

The Lancet Series on Violence Against Women and GirlsTheLancetWeb
Every day, millions of women and girls worldwide experience violence. This abuse takes many forms, including intimate physical and sexual partner violence, female genital mutilation, child and forced marriage, sex trafficking, and rape. The Lancet Series on Violence against women and girls shows that such abuse is preventable. Five papers cover the evidence base for interventions, discuss the vital role of the health sector in care and prevention, show the need for men and women to be involved in effective programmes, provide practical lessons from experience in countries, and present a call for action with five key recommendations and indicators to track progress.
