February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness & Prevention Month (TDVAPM), and this 2022 at Human Options, we are getting ready to launch our awareness campaign in hopes to engage our teens, families, networks and communities. Often times, teen relationships are overlooked and seen as ‘less serious’ when compared with adult relationships. However, studies show that 1 in 3 teens will experience some type of abuse by an intimate partner. Because of this staggering statistic, we are preparing for our Love Shouldn’t Hurt campaign this February 2022.
