En La Casa: Domestic Violence in Latin America

March 1, 2000

Around the world, when women discuss serious issues in their lives, they often mention violence against them in their homes. On this program, the National Radio Project's Women's Desk discusses domestic violence in Latin America. We also take a look at ways women and men are successfully addressing it.
