Current Events

Teen Dating Violence Awareness MonthFebruary is National Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month. This is an initiative to increase awareness of teen dating violence, which is unfortunately all too common: Nearly 1.5 million high school students nationwide experience physical abuse from a dating partner in a single year and one in three adolescent girls in the US are a victim of physical, emotional or verbal abuse from a dating partner, a figure that far exceeds rates of other types of youth violence. Our Community Education team will be in the schools throughout the month providing information and referrals to both middle and high school students; educating them about relationship violence.
