Safe Passage Inc. Presents Teen Dating Violence Awareness Virtual Presentation

There will also be a Virtual Parents and Caregivers Teen Dating Violence workshop on February 25 at 6:00 p.m.

(Jefferson County, Ind.) – February is teen dating violence awareness month.

The Safe Passage Prevention team is working in schools throughout their six county service areas of Dearborn, Ohio, Switzerland, Jefferson, Ripley, and Franklin Counties. Prevention is a component of the mission of Safe Passage.

“We know it happens here, that it’s not just in big cities or metro schools. Consider: 1 in 3 teens will experience physical or sexual violence or both by their dating partner and that teens who are in an abusive relationship are 4 times more likely to be in a domestic violence relationship as an adult,” said Danielle Becker, Preventionist for Safe Passage.

There will also be a Virtual Parents and Caregivers Teen Dating Violence workshop on February 25 at 6:00 p.m. This will be an interactive discussion where parents and caregivers learn about warning signs, how to start the conversation and be prepared to discuss healthy vs. unhealthy relationships with your child.
