Tuesday, September 1, 2009 Bingaman: Funding to Help Combat Domestic Violence WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman announced today that the National Latino Alliance for the Elimination of Domestic Violence (Alianza) has been awarded $516,204 through the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to help combat domestic violence. The Albuquerque non-profit will use the funding to provide training and technical assistance to domestic violence and sexual assault coalitions. The assistance will be made available through: 1) curricula-based train-the-trainer workshops; 2) written educational materials through a web-based resource center; and 3) a national conference on family violence issues affecting Hispanics. "The funding awarded today will help Alianza better assist victims of domestic violence and support important initiatives to address this serious issue," Bingaman said. The funding announced today was awarded through DOJ's Office on Violence Against Women, which provides direct support to domestic violence and sexual assault organizations through funding, training and technical assistance, public awareness activities and public policy advocacy.
