TUESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2001 High rates of domestic violence among Alaska Natives and African-Americans are the target of a meeting being held by the city of Anchorage. The city organized "Cultural Competency" because officials were concerned that 37 percent of the domestic violence victims and 41 percent of offenders are black or Native. Yet the populations together are less than 15 percent of the city's total. The conference ends today. Get the Story:
