EDUCATION about and PREVENTION against relationship violence.

Christie Brungardt

Dr. Christie Brungardt was a lucky mother. She got to be Jana’s Mom. Being Jana’s Mom was lots of fun. Beyond being Jana’s Mom, she is also Mom to Todd, Travis, Sara and Drake. But the most fun is being Grandma to Aleska, Michaela, Alexis, Peyton, Michael, Dakota and Kamber.

On July 3, 2008, her life changed forever. Her daughter, Jana Mackey, a 25 year-old law student at the University of Kansas, was murdered by her ex-boyfriend in Lawrence, KS.
​
Since Jana’s death, Christie has been active nationally in the effort to reduce all forms of gender and relationship violence. She and her husband Curt have established Jana’s Campaign, Inc., which is a national education and violence prevention organization with the single mission of reducing gender and relationship violence. In honor of Jana, and other victims and survivors, Jana’s Campaign delivers educational programs that prevent domestic and dating violence, sexual violence, and stalking.
