The clubs, who are from Puerto Rico, have made great strides in increasing their presence in the media. The Zonta Club of Caguas hosted programs on projects calling for revising laws dealing with domestic violence. The Zonta Club of San Juan showcased a woman founder for its Breast Cancer awareness campaign. The Zonta Club of Ponce presented a special curriculum on how we can end domestic violence through legislation.
