KVPR’s Valley Edition program interviews Genoveva Islas of Cultiva La Salud about Safety Through Connection, a new Prevention Institute program designed to support community-based approaches to prevent intimate partner violence. Through the program, which is funded by the Blue Shield of California Foundation, five California collaboratives are receiving one-year planning and capacity-building grants to address the risk of intimate partner violence among low-wage workers, rural and tribal communities, immigrants, and other communities that face high rates of this type of violence. The interview about Safety Through Connection begins 32 minutes into the program.
