Know your Rights aims at reducing stigma and cultural incompatibility to engage families. Language proficiency is a major barrier for intended communities who are unsure to engage in workshops that use specific words such as ‘’criminal’’. We use titles that fit with different cultures. This makes it easier for more people to understand what we mean and learn from us.
