What People are saying: "Domestic Violence has historically been a hidden issue in our community, as it is in most communities. Because people have been so hesitant to talk about it, it has been difficult to identify the families in need of help. Adelante is helping to educate the community about domestic violence and appropriate family interactions. In doing so, it has encouraged more women to come forward and discuss their concerns about challenging situations in the home, so they can get the help they need." - Celso Rodriguez, one of Adelante's founding board members
