KARAMAH Participates in Interfaith Voices’ Religious Leaders as First Responders to Domestic Violence

On May 12, 2016, KARAMAH’s Executive Director Aisha Rahman participated in Interfaith Radio’s “Religious Leaders as First Responders to Domestic Violence,” a panel discussion about the work of faith-based leaders in eradicating the epidemic of domestic violence in America. Below is Interfaith Radio’s description of the event: How do ancient religious texts and practices protect– or endanger– victims of domestic violence? Often, victims of abuse will go to a pastor or a rabbi before they go to the police. But experts say without proper training, well intentioned religious leaders sometimes do more harm than good. We speak with a group of interfaith advocates who are trying to change that. To listen in, visit Interfaith Radio’s website.
