I Believe You. Faiths' Response to Intimate Partner Violence

Description

I Believe You: Faiths' Response to Intimate Partner Violence is an extraordinary interfaith documentary that explores the stories of survivors of abuse and the response of faith groups to address their needs. From rural programs such as the Susanna Wesley Family Learning Center in Missouri to urban programs such as First Step in Michigan, from prevention programs such as Healthy Relationships held at Camp Herzl in Wisconsin, to recognition programs like the Mikveh Attendants program in New Jersey, from support groups at Emma's Place in Minnesota to healing programs at Mayyim Hayyim in Massachusetts, faith groups are exploring ways to support, advocate for and help aid the healing of those who have been harmed by abuse. The program is filled with the hard won wisdom of survivors and the insight and understanding of clergy and program leaders.
