Community group hosts evening of games to mark Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month
A community group is inviting residents to join an evening of fun, games and positive activities while also shining a light on Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, organizers said in a Facebook post that included a purple heart emoji.
Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, observed each February, aims to raise public awareness about dating abuse among adolescents and to promote prevention and support for young people affected by unhealthy or violent relationships.
Organizers described the gathering as an opportunity to combine social activities with community outreach, creating a positive space for conversation and connection. The Facebook post encouraged participation but did not list additional details about time, location or specific programming.
Experts and advocacy groups say raising awareness and providing resources are key steps in preventing teen dating violence and supporting survivors. Local and national organizations often offer information, counseling and referrals for those in need. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
