How Can Your Faith Community Respond to Violence in Our Community?
Faith Partners is a collaborative effort from the YWCA Spokane, Women’s Healing and Empowerment Network, Create Your Statement, and Abuse Recovery Ministry and Services. The goal is to provide education, resources and support for faith communities so they can facilitate advocacy, sanctuary and healing for people affected by domestic violence.

This free event is open to the public and will be located at the City Church, 1047 W Garland Ave, Spokane.
