April Workshop to Focus on Domestic Violence
CHICAGO, IL (March 21, 2005) - A workshop on domestic violence will be
conducted on Saturday, April 2, at North Park Theological Seminary,
presented by the Center for Justice Ministries.
The workshop, which will focus on prevention, skills and awareness, will
be conducted by Aleese Moore-Orbih, project manager for the Assistance
to Victims of Abuse program that is part of Women Ministries of the
Evangelical Covenant Church. The workshop will begin at 9 a.m. and
continue until 3 p.m. in Room N-25 of Nyvall Hall on the seminary campus.
"Most of us believe that domestic violence, teen dating violence and
sexual abuse of children doesn't happen in the families of our
congregations," says Moore-Orbih. "Violence against women and children
happens everywhere. It crosses all racial, social, educational, economic
and religious lines."
Workshop registrations must be received no later than April 1. The
workshop fee of $5 includes lunch. To register for the workshop, email
Jeanine Brown, coordinator of the Center for Justice Ministries, at
jbrown@northpark.edu or call her at 773 244-6220.
