Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month Comes to a Close but Our Work Does Not

To our amazing supporters:

As 2010's Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month comes to a close, we want to thank all of you for standing beside Break the Cycle as a united voice against violence. Your support made it possible for one million young people to hear about BTC's website, http://www.thesafespace.org, in their morning announcement on February 10. Your support made it possible for 100 schools across the United States to receive our educational resources for free. Your support helped encourage 30 new people to join BTC's HOPE, our membership giving drive. And your support made Break the Cycle's Have a Heart Campaign and our new http://TeenDVMonth.org website such a huge success nationwide.

But your support means so much more. To the silent victims, the young people without a place to turn, a confidential shoulder to lean on, or the ability to get legal protection - your support tells them that their voices are being heard. One more voice being heard is one more life that could be saved.

Of course, the effort to end dating violence doesn't stop on March 1. Break the Cycle is committed to helping teens and young people 365 days a year. So we conclude this month by providing ways that you can continue to stand up and speak out:

1) SIGN THE PETITION
Make sure that students in schools across the nation have the tools they need to build healthy relationships. Sign Mary Kay’s petition to urge legislators to require dating violence education in schools.

2) JOIN HOPE


3) FAN OUR PAGE
Become a fan of our page to get the most up to date information from BTC. You can Join here. We've made a goal of starting March with 2,500 fans. Help us reach that goal by visiting our BTC fan page and suggesting it to your friends. Again, every new person who learns about Break the Cycle is someone who will discover the tools to prevent abuse in relationships they or their loved ones are in.

For every 100 fans we add through March 31, we'll give one school a free copy of [Ending Violence], our innovative prevention curriculum. The best part - YOU get to decide where it goes! We'll be taking nominations on the fan page beginning next Monday!

Thanks again for all of your support and dedication to helping the victims of dating abuse. We could not have done any of this without you.

  8. I really appreciate the thought expressed in this post. Destructive relationships during the teen years can lead to life-long unhealthy relationship practices, may disrupt normal development, and can contribute to other unhealthy behaviors in teens that, if left unchecked, can lead to problems over a lifetime. Thanks a lot !! Teen Dating Relationships

  10. I have recently found myself single because my boyfriend and I just want different things in life. But before we broke up, I met this super cool guy in globogirls.com I don't know if we will ever be in love or spend the rest of our lives together, but I am enjoying being with him while I can. My suggestion to anyone doing online dating is be safe, cautious, and honest. I guess that globogirls.com will help you a lot.

  19. Girl Scout Cookies, like so many other awesome weed strains hails from the West Coast of the US girl scout cookies strain where she created waves of raving excitement among cannabis lovers shortly after she came to the scene. So big was the excitement about this super-potent strain that it didn’t take long until these waves and her stellar reputation reached Europe and the rest of the world. Today she is the best selling strain on the West Coast and the most popular strain in North America.

  23. This post is an encouragement for teens " To the silent victims, the young people without a place to turn, a confidential shoulder to lean on, or the ability to get legal protection," this part of the post really gets me because the reality of life is that Domestic Violence abuse sometimes are not brought into consideration enough.

    People think that Youths are complaining and being "ungrateful," in relationships, when the fact of the matter is that abusive relationships actually happens and when something bad happens it is normally too late.

    https://laraleighm2.wixsite.com/youthaware/support-services-1 is a Youth Awareness Services which are designed by my friends and I to help with sensitive issues such as Domestic Violence towards Youths.

    We hope that it could be a helpful platform for an individual who needs help and a shoulder to lean on.
