Why do so few men step up to publicly combat domestic violence? Join Victim Advocate, Alejandro “Alex” Palacios, as he explores with us a big 'elephant in the room' - the silence of men. Alex identifies the barriers to engaging boys and men in the work, from societal pressures to personal responsibility. We explore the impact of trauma, the importance of empathy, and practical steps to influence meaningful change in your local community. This podcast is a call to action, a conversation starter, and a plea for change. IG: @alexpalaciosarza LinkedIn: Alejandro Palacios LinkedIn: Donna Bartos  IG: @uprootabuse
