Love Shouldn't Hurt: A Panel Event
2022-02-23 18:00 - 19:00
February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness month, and all month long Young Leaders Against Violence (YLAV) will be sending the message that Love Shouldn’t Hurt, culminating in a live panel event on February 23 at 6pm. Register online to attend via Zoom or watch on Facebook live.

Unfortunately, 1 in 3 teens in relationships experience sexual abuse, physical abuse, or threats of physical abuse. Whether you are a parent, teacher, or friend, recognizing abuse and knowing how to support teens who experience it can be challenging. We want to give you tools to help.

Our panel will discuss the importance of talking about teen dating violence, what various forms of abuse look like, and what you can do to support someone experiencing teen dating violence. This event will take place on Zoom and be livestreamed to Facebook.

YLAV is a group of Kent County teens dedicated to both bringing awareness to and preventing dating and sexual abuse. We are pleased to invite you to join our panel event about teen dating violence and what you can do to support teens. YLAV is a program of Safe Haven Ministries.
