Christina shares her story of domestic violence as a way to help us all better understand and join her as advocates. She is a woman of great strength and we can all learn from her experiences. She also provided us with many great resources. For those currently struggling with domestic violence, anywhere in the USA, a couple great resources are www.thehotline.org and www.211.org. Or, call 211 if you don't have access to internet. For those in Oregon, calltosafety.org and www.dvrc-or.org, are great resources Christina has been a part of. Christina also mentioned a couple of models or approaches to life. One was harm reduction, more information can be found here harmreduction.org/about-us/principles-of-harm-reduction Another is this idea of heart-centered communication, a tool we can all use with those in our lives to model positive communication: gailbrenner.com/2009/11/6-heart-centered-communication-tools To support Christina's work, you can donate through www.dvrc-or.org/donate (or find other domestic violence resource centers in your community that need help). Being educated on the issue is always the first step to take toward better supporting those who need it.
