She is also a founding board member of the Dallas Area Rape Crisis Center.
Christina earned a Master of Science in Social Work (MSSW) at the University of Texas at Arlington and Bachelor of Social Work at the University of North Texas.
“Christina brings a broad range of experience in intimate partner and family violence and a deep commitment to help those affected by it,” said Curtis Howard, president of the board of directors of HDNBC. “That makes her an ideal choice to lead Hope’s Door New Beginning Center in the next decade. We look forward to working with her.
