Arte Sana In Action
-
We would like to take
this opportunity to thank those of you who have supported our efforts.
Despite limited funds and incredible obstacles, Arte Sana?s training
sessions have reached many, especially along the Texas-Mexico border.
All of Arte Sana's victim advocacy work has been made possible through
the cooperation of advocates from across the U.S. and Latin America. Arte Sana's
work is an example of grassroots victim rights activism. Read about our latest
trainings and other activities.
