Mujeres Luchadora Progresistas is a non profit group of Latina women in the state of Oregon who came together to provide support to each other from experiences of domestic violence and abuse.
In addressing the issues that the women face, the group attempts to provide services in a way that avoids isolating or separating the family and it’s members. One of the things that I find interesting about this group is that they have managed to organize themselves as a non profit and are taking advantage of the benefit of being incorporated by selling wreaths to raise funds that are used to advance the group. As it states in their About MLP page “… to foster our organization’s development and self-determination.”
