The Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center’s Healthy Relationships and Teen Dating Violence Prevention workshops for young people ages 13–18 teach how to identify abuse in a current or past relationship, as well as how to avoid entering abusive relationships with potential dating partners.

We partner with local area middle and high schools to offer these workshops in health classes. Please reach out to Lismar Martinez for more information.

One in three girls in the US is a victim of physical, emotional or verbal abuse from a dating partner, a figure that far exceeds rates of other types of youth violence.

Nearly 1.5 million high school students nationwide experience physical abuse from a dating partner in a single year.
