“A Palatine domestic-violence assistance group will launch a new initiative next year to reach out to Hispanic victims.

In February, the Suburban Latina Project will offer a bilingual and bicultural approach to help Latina victims of domestic violence.

The goal is to overcome some of the obstacles that hinder Latino women from seeking help, including language barriers and concerns about immigration status.”
