February 4-8, 2008 is
National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Week
End It Now.

Dating violence can include physical, emotional, verbal, psychological or sexual abuse. It is important to educate teens and those who can influence them to distinguish violent dating behaviors from healthy behaviors. Use this site to access information that can help.

If you or someone you know is experiencing dating violence, please call the National Teen Dating Abuse Helpline at 1-866-331-9474 (1-866-331-8453 TTY) for assistance and more information (available 24/7). You can also chat on-line at www.loveisrespect.org with a trained Peer Advocate who can offer support and connect you to resources from 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. (CST) daily.
