A $10,000 Project Grant has been awarded to A Breeze of Hope Foundation (ABH) to support its school-based sexual violence awareness project in Cochabamba, Bolivia. Since 2009, ABH has been changing school cultures and helping those who’ve suffered sexual violence to disclose the crimes committed against them and begin healing. ABH has reached over 80,000 people through this longstanding effort, most of whom are of low or impoverished socio-economic status. For this project, ABH will: 1) conduct workshops with middle and high schools in Cochabamba, reaching at least 4,200 students, 600 parents, and 200 educators, 2) provide students with current information on their human rights, ways to get help, and the benefits of disclosing sexual violence, and 3) ensure that professionals trained in trauma-informed response are prepared to provide legal assistance, therapeutic support, social services, academic support and advocacy to children who disclose sexual violence during or after workshops.
