DESCRIPTION:This is a part of the tour for the new book “Women Healing Women: A Model 
 of Hope for Oppressed Women Everywhere”, which recounts the story of 
 Maher, an interfaith center for battered women and children located near 
 Pune, India. Founded in 1997, the project has provided refuge to more than 
 1350 women, half of whom would likely otherwise have been murdered, 
 committed suicide, or starved to death. The book is rich with poignant 
 firsthand accounts by women and children whose lives have been transformed 
 by the Maher project. The book also explores the larger implications of 
 this pioneering work, with guidance for implementing similar projects 
 elsewhere. Rev. Lowell Brook will introduce the speakers: the extraordinary 
 Sr. Lucy Kurien, the founder of the Maher Project, and the book’s authors 
 Will Keepin and Cynthia Brix. There will be books available to buy, and 
 book-signing, afterwards.\n\nBook website:
