Christina Jones

Christina Jones

Christina M. Jones is a survivor and a champion for change. Having experienced sexual assault, she has transformed her lived experience into a powerful force for advocacy and reform, particularly for marginalized communities. Her journey—from survivor to leader—has been defined by resilience, compassion, and an unwavering dedication to creating systems that empower, uplift, and protect those in need.

Today, Christina serves as Chief Executive of External Relations for BWJP, a national nonprofit at the forefront of systemic reform in the criminal and civil justice systems for survivors of gender-based violence. Her leadership has been pivotal, transforming BWJP’s reach and impact through strategic partnerships, innovative communications, and an astounding 1500% increase in funding, including numerous six- and seven-figure foundation grants. Christina’s work at BWJP is deeply informed by her personal journey, and she uses her voice and experience to amplify the needs of survivors across the country.

Before joining BWJP, Christina’s unique background shaped her career in criminal justice. As a former prosecutor focused on sexual violence cases, she connected with survivors on a personal level, understanding both their pain and resilience. In her roles at the DC Office of the Attorney General (OAG), she implemented impactful youth policies and programs, including the DC Teen Dating Violence Summit, which empowered youth to navigate issues of consent and safety. Earlier, as Assistant Chief for the Criminal and Juvenile Section, she supervised attorneys, shaped criminal justice policy, and co-developed the Special Victims Unit, becoming an advocate within a system she aimed to reform from the inside out.

Christina’s commitment to change goes beyond legal advocacy. She is a passionate mentor and advocate for Emerging Leaders, fostering the next generation of changemakers. She has led training sessions for large audiences, designed federal and private-sector workshops, and developed dynamic programs that help leaders connect, support, and amplify their voices. Her workshops have empowered Emerging Leaders across various industries, equipping them with tools to navigate complex challenges, champion innovation, and make meaningful contributions. Christina’s dedication to mentoring young professionals is evident in the countless leaders who now carry forward her teachings of justice, resilience, and purpose.

In addition to her role at BWJP, Christina is the founder and CEO of Command Joy Co. LLC, a consulting firm dedicated to sexual assault prevention, sexual harassment training, and safety within faith-based organizations. Through Command Joy Co., Christina has extended her advocacy into faith communities, helping congregations create safer environments. In 2024, her “Breaking Silence: Black Women, Sexual Assault, and the Church” conversation series reached over 4,500 people, sparking vital discussions on safety, healing, and justice.

Christina’s expertise and voice have also resonated through media, with her insights featured in Time Magazine, Sirius XM Urban Radio, CBS Radio, Yahoo News, and numerous legal journals. Her writings advocate for Black women and girls, shedding light on issues that are often overlooked, and creating a platform for the marginalized.

Christina resides in Washington, DC, with her husband Jason, their son Xavier, and their cat Zamunda. A leader at home and in her community, she serves as the PTO President at her son’s school and is a member of Mocha Moms DC Chapter. Guided by her faith and a commitment to justice, Christina’s journey is a powerful narrative of resilience, leadership, and the belief that we can build a world where justice, safety, and dignity belong to all.

THE SHEKINAH EMBASSY PROJECT!

In the spirit of faith and unity, Shekinah Network International welcomes you to embark on an extraordinary journey with us. A journey that not only transforms the physical landscape of Lafia but also embodies our unwavering commitment to our divine mission. We stand on the brink of a momentous chapter in our church's history, and we invite you to be part of this historic occasion as we announce our monumental building project.

Nehemiah 2:20:
Scripture reminds us, "Our God will fight for us!" Just as Nehemiah rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem, we find inspiration to pursue our vision with unwavering faith in God's providence.

The Vision:

Envision a sanctuary reaching towards the heavens, a place where hearts soar in worship, and souls are nourished by the word of God. Imagine a sprawling campus teeming with life, where fellowship thrives, and our sense of community strengthens. Picture an architectural marvel that not only stands as a testament to our faith but also radiates hope to all who pass by.

The Mission:

Our mission is anchored in the teachings of Jesus Christ. We aspire to create a sacred space where love, compassion, and faith flourish, where the broken find healing, and the lost find their way. Our new building will be more than bricks and mortar; it will be a sanctuary where lives are transformed.

The Design:

Our vision takes form through the exceptional architectural design by [Light and Menorah Architect]. This design embodies our core values of openness, inclusivity, and reverence. With its soaring spires, welcoming entrances, and sustainable features, our new building will be an architectural masterpiece that harmonizes with the natural beauty of Lafia.

The Impact:

This project is about more than constructing a building; it's about building lives, building a stronger community, and building a brighter future. Our expanded facilities will empower us to extend our reach, offering more programs, support, and services to those in need.

Our Commitment:

We recognize the enormity of this endeavor, both in terms of resources and effort. Nevertheless, we are fueled by our unshakeable faith in God's divine plan. We pledge to be faithful stewards of the resources entrusted to us and to work tirelessly to see this vision come to fruition.

Join Us on this Journey:

As we embark on this path, we invite you, our cherished congregation and community, to stand with us. Your prayers, support, and active participation will be invaluable as we progress. Together, we can bring this vision to life, and together, we can forge a better future for all.

Conclusion:

In the spirit of Nehemiah, who rebuilt Jerusalem's walls through faith and determination, we too shall rise to the occasion. Our new building will not just be a structure; it will be a testament to our faith, a place where the Shekinah glory shines brightly. As we take this leap of faith, we trust in Nehemiah 2:20: "Our God will fight for us!" Together, let's build the Shekinah Network International and watch as God works miracles through us.

Stay tuned for updates, milestones, and opportunities to get involved on our social media pages. Thank you for your unwavering support. Together, we can turn this vision into a glorious reality.

Dr. Anelia Kurteva

I am a postdoctoral researcher at TU Delft, The Netherlands. My current research on the RePlanIT project explores the ways the Semantic Web and specifically knowledge graphs can be utilised to support trusted and FAIR data sharing in the Circular Economy domain, while keeping humans-in-the-loop.

I completed my PhD in the Semantic Technology Institute (STI) Innsbruck, Department of Computer Science, University of Innsbruck, Austria. My doctoral research focused on supporting machines and humans in making sense of informed consent, for sensor data sharing in smart cities, with knowledge graphs. My work on the smashHit H2020 and CampaNeo FFG projects, helped bridge the gap between the Semantic Web, Human-Computer Interaction and Privacy fields. Prior to that, I received an MSc in Advanced Computer Science from Cardiff University, The United Kingdom, where I also completed my BSc in Computer Science and Visual Computing.
As of 2023, I am part of European Data Protection Board’s pool of experts in new technologies, privacy and data protection.
