St. Paul, MN July 10th, 2014—Domestic abuse impacts one in three Minnesota women by the age of forty. Victims of domestic abuse represent women from across socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. Women of Nations, the third largest domestic violence shelter in Minnesota, provides shelter and advocacy to women and children fleeing domestic violence and education to our community.
On August 12th, 2013 Women of Nations will hold its annual Fall Feast. Incorporating traditional food and music, Women of Nations will honor those who have passed as a result of domestic violence and honor those who have survived. Please join us at the Little Earth Gymnasium (2501 Cedar Ave S, Minneapolis, MN) from 5:00-7:00pm.
RSVP no later than August 4th, 2014 to Kelly Marie Prosen (kprosen@women-of-nations.org, 651-251-1621).
About Women of Nations
Beginning in 1982, WON served Native American women victimized by domestic violence through assisting them in obtaining Orders for Protection and advocating on their behalf with law enforcement, judicial and social service systems, and other entities as needed. In 2014, Women of Nations provides supportive services including crisis intervention, advocacy, and shelter for Native American and other battered women and educates the public on domestic violence issues.
