1 in 3 adolescents in the U.S. is a victim of physical, emotional or sexual abuse from a dating partner, a figure that far exceeds rates of other types of youth violence. That means one-third of high school students have been or will be involved in an abusive relationship.
Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month is a national effort that brings focus to the issue of teen dating violence, highlights the need to educate our youth about healthy relationships, raises awareness among those who care for them and provides communities with the opportunity to work together to prevent abuse in youth relationships.
