KQED
Domestic Violence Awareness & Prevention
Media Outreach Campaign
KQED Community Outreach will collaborate with organizations in the Bay Area
to raise awareness on domestic violence. Our campaign efforts will explore the
cycle of violence and how domestic violence continues to impact families and
communities through a video production workshop, creative arts intensive workshop
for batterers, survivors, and teens, and a family violence conference/town hall
in the Bay Area.

Community Works
Community Works in partnership with the San Francisco Sheriff's Department's

programming that re-educates violent offenders(particularly domestic violence
offenders) to understand the impact of their violence on themselves, the survivors
of their violence and the community. RSVP is predicated on the belief that violence
is learned and that it can be unlearned. www.community-works-ca.org (510) 845-3332

Domestic Violence Video Production Workshop
KQED Community Outreach facilitated a five-day video production and editing workshop
for domestic violence organizations to learn how to produce a public service
announcement (PSA). From concept to production to post-production, each organization
learned how to craft a message into an audio-visual format. Each organization
successfully completed a PSA that they can distribute to television stations,
share with funders, clients and their staff.
