The Catholic Archdiocese of Baltimore’s Hispanic Ministry invited the House of Ruth Maryland to share about Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) in the Latino Community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We spoke about the difficulties survivors deal with such as: job loss, the constant presence of their abusive partner, food shortage and how to stay healthy in the present environment.
Are you aware of other religious communities that are addressing IPV in their churches during this pandemic?
