Family violence is a topic that has made the headlines much too often lately, mainly due to the pressure of COVID-19 on many families. Informing the community about the issue, PRONIA has created a form of webinars aimed at raising awareness on the issue which has increased during coronavirus lockdowns.
PRONIA’s culturally responsive prevention and early intervention programs and family relationship counselling address family violence and elder abuse to bring about social change and stop family violence.
