Blue Skies Listening Session - Fall 2016 Registration
California's movement to end domestic violence began in the late '60s. With more than four and a half decades of work behind us, many of our early strategies have become not only time-honored traditions, but state-mandated core standards.
We were curious...
Do our current strategies reflect the field’s best thinking at this time?
To find out the answer to this question, The California Partnership to End Domestic Violence created the Blue Skies Listening Tour. The tour provided opportunities for visionary people throughout California to convene and share creative, practical ideas about what is needed to address DV in their communities, raising up what’s currently working, and illuminating what’s missing.
