HAVE PITY & COMPASSION UPDATE
In May, the Have Pity and Compassion venture team gathered 20 community members to hold a public talk about conflict management and family law. They are also training a group of community members to provide continuing education and to raise awareness about these issues in their neighborhoods. To facilitate this process, the venture team will be using the curriculum they designed to offer a training of trainers program, visiting these community groups in the field twice per week. Have Pity and Compassion is also helping individuals to navigate the legal processes for dealing with property law and domestic conflict.
