%X Christian social workers and religious communities are important components of a coordinated community response to domestic violence, since so many people of faith look to those with a faith perspective when seeking help. This article describes a clearinghouse website designed to facilitate such a coordinated response. The RAVE (Religion and Violence e-Learning) Project seeks to equip people of faith to respond to domestic violence in ways that are compassionate, practical and informed by the latest research and best practices by professionals; to build bridges between religious and secular services; to walk alongside victims and survivors; to work with youth in developing the skills for healthy relationships; and to hold abusers accountable.<p />
