Spotlight on Maitri - NPO helping south asians in situations of domestic abuse

Tweet
By bayareadesi team on 10 Jun 2011

In spotlight today is Maitri, a non-profit organization in bay area helping South Asian women (and now men) in situations of domestic abuse, cultural displacement, or unresolved conflict.

They run support groups for survivors of abuse as well as people still in abusive relationships seeking a safe place to explore their feelings and operate a transitional home, an six bed facility for women (and their children) who have left abusive relationships and are on their way to rebuilding their lives.

The video outlines their mission, programs, how do they run and achievements over the past two decade. For more information visit http://bayareadesi.com/indian-business/maitri-san-jose  

Presenter: Sonia Pelia, General Secretary, Maitri
