Prevention Through Education: A Discussion on Teen Dating Violence

Hear a powerful, youth-led conversation about teen dating violence prevention that centers the voices that matter most...young people themselves!

We'll begin with an eye-opening presentation exploring teen dating violence dynamics and evidence-based prevention strategies that work and keep the youth safe. Afterwards, hear directly from local youth as they share real talk about their experiences, perspectives, and vision for building healthier relationships.

Agenda:

• 5:00-5:25 PM – Doors open! Check in, grab light refreshments, and connect with fellow community members
• 5:30 PM – Presentation begins
• 6:30 PM – Youth panel discussion & Q&A

This is an interactive space where youth lead the conversation and everyone learns together. Whether you're a teen, parent, educator, or community member, your presence matters in creating safer spaces for young people.

Come ready to listen, learn, and be inspired by the young leaders in our community!
