About 1 in 4 women (24%) and 1 in 7 men (13%) have experienced severe physical violence by an intimate partner at some point in their lifetime.
With those sobering statistics in mind, we asked our fellow violence prevention practitioners to create video public service announcements to help raise awareness about teen dating violence and the importance of prevention.
We received dozens of submissions, showcasing what violence prevention efforts look like in communities, schools, and businesses across the country.
We invite you to watch the winning entries, share with others, and join our efforts to prevent teen dating violence today.
