National Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Event Date:
-

Of high school students, 8.5% reported being physically hurt intentionally by their partner in the last year. For youth, being a victim of or witnessing acts of domestic violence are traumatic experiences that can affect their mental and behavioral health. 

Make your program a safe space for youth and incorporate the topic of healthy relationships into your Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention (APP) programming. Awareness, education, and prevention can help break the cycle of domestic violence.
