Healing Streams in the DR Congo

At Healing Streams we are passionate about healing from the trauma of gender-based violence for the women and girl children in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In DR Congo rape impacts a whole community because women are the producers of food and the caregivers for the family. While many women & men are working to change this attitude, the number one response to a raped woman in DR Congo is rejection. This rejection tears at the very core of the community.  Join us in bringing hope and healing through training of trainers, advocacy, and support in partnership with local Congolese organizations and churches.

We had a great time participating in Waterloo and Vancouver and we have captains ready to go for 2010. Plan now to enter a team for the 2010 Ride for Refugees and support Healing Streams work in DRC.
