History of the Christian Network
Against Domestic Violence

in November 2004. Tamika Johnson, a survivor and conqueror understands the
devastating effects of domestic violence and after assessing the problem of domestic violence within the Christian home and
the faith community’s response to: the issue, victims, and abusers; Johnson recognized the need for an organization
that would not only empower victims, but would equip leaders in the faith community with the tools to aid those in crisis.
We are pleased to offer this online resource.
