520			_aThe primary purpose of this project, which was undertaken for the Catholic Commission for Justice, Peace and Development, was 'to develop an action plan for the churches to address family violence.' (p6) The project arose from research which identified patriarchal theology and the importance placed on the family as key factors in the incidence of family violence in church communities. It describes initiatives undertaken by various denominations to acknowledge their role in fostering relationships that might result in violence within the family, and to provide services for the victims and perpetrators of family violence. The author contacted key people in the churches, and conducted follow-up interviews with 17 people professionally involved in family violence and child abuse issues. They represented a cross-section of Christian denominations. The interviews gathered details of current programmes and looked at future plans. The information gathered informed the Draft Action Plan which identifies a number of key tasks, and specifies who should undertake them. The Draft Action Plan is based on the principle that "If the Christian message of the dignity of all human beings is to be taken seriously, [churches] should be in the forefront of efforts to enable women to share their stories and experiences [and to become] partners in a non-violent world." (p23)
