Odette Yousef, north side Bureau Reporter from sister-station WBEZ, stopped by Morning AMp to discuss domestic violence in Arab American communities with Brian and Molly.

What it boils down to instead is that there just aren't the resources or the education to effectively deal with these issues in Arab immigrant communities yet.
