Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month

February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month.  Teen dating violence, also known as intimate partner violence or intimate relationship violence, is a serious problem in the U.S., affecting approximately 10% of all teenagers between the age of 12 to 18. It includes stalking, harassment, physical or sexual abuse.  Join organizations and individuals across the country in raising awareness, teaching healthy relationship skills and preventing the devastating cycle of abuse.  For more information, talk to your parish / school Safe Environment Coordinator or go to:  https://www.gidiocese.org/news-events
