Another place to check is with some of the other ethnic-minority student
organizations. I know that issues of domestic violence has been raised and
addressed (at some level) within the Asian/Pacific American community. And I
know there are community based organizations that do workshops with college
students. I once watched an excellent film/documentary on domestic
violence--it focused on an Asian American women but also involving and
touching on the lives of a diverse group of women--in my Asian American Women
course taught by Maryann Takemoto (UCI Counseling Ctr).
Also, there was a student organization called Greeks Against Sexual Assualt
(GASA) that worked with just the Greek Community.
Hope this helps.
