With the support of a mini-grant from the Victim Offender Mediation Association, I traveled to Salvador with the SHARE Foundation for eight days at th ened of March 2005. The focus of the Share delegation was the commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the assassination of Archbishop Oscar Romero. SHARE Fondation has worked in El Salvador since 1981, accompanying and supporting the people as they fled the death squads and providing spiritual, physical and financial support as they rebuilt their lives and communities after the war. They continue the work to help communities find means to reclaim basic human rights, fundamental civil liberties, and degraded environments. (excerpts)
