Faith and Healing: Navigating Domestic Violence in Religious Communities" is a groundbreaking guide that addresses the often-overlooked issue of domestic violence within religious settings.

Through a combination of survivor stories, educational content, and actionable steps, "Faith and Healing" calls on religious communities to break the silence around domestic violence, promote safety and accountability, and become active participants in the journey of healing and hope. Whether you are a survivor seeking solace, a faith leader looking to support your congregation, or an ally advocating for change, this book offers the resources, insight, and encouragement needed to create a more compassionate and just world.
