CW: Domestic and Family Violence

Erica Mandi Manga (née Hamence), who is Associate Minister of Formation and Training at St Barnabas Broadway in Australia, joins us to talk about the trauma caused by Domestic and Family Violence.

In this episode, we talk about Erica’s work in resourcing churches, define “domestic and family violence,” which encompasses far more than intimate partner violence, characteristics of these unhealthy environments, and how some of the students in Erica’s care have come to recognize them.

Team members on the episode from The Two Cities include: Stephanie Kate Judd and Dr. Madison Pierce.

Series Disclaimer: This series explores the concept of “trauma,” its sources, and its expressions from a range of perspectives. Some of our guests are licensed mental health professionals; some are those with formative experiences of trauma; and others are those who explore trauma through various theoretical frameworks. We hope that this series provides useful information to all that enables them to begin to be trauma-informed and to love others and themselves better. Our series is by no means meant to replace the important work of one-on-one time with a trauma-informed professional.
