Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month (TDVAM) is a month-long campaign dedicated to raising awareness about teen dating abuse. Every February, young people and their loved ones join together across the country for a national effort to raise awareness about the issue of teen dating violence. Congress declared the month of February to be National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month in 2010.

Here at NEWS we plan a busy month of prevention activities and presentations. This year we will be holding #orange4love tabling events at Calistoga Junior/Senior High School, St. Helena High School, and New Tech High School in Napa. I will also be making Healthy Relationship presentations at schools including Harvest Middle School and American Canyon High School. Many of these events are coordinated with school clubs, youth groups, and after school programs.

You can check out everything we are doing this year by going to our TDVAM webpage where you will also find resources and cool Zoom backgrounds that show your support! Listen to KVON 1440AM radio for our PSA in Spanish, and KVYN 99.3FM in English, and don't forget to check out our social media posts throughout the month on Facebook and Instagram!

Remember if you or someone you love needs support or advice we have our confidential Youth Matter Healthy Relationship Coaching that can be accessed at your local Middle/High school Wellness Centers. Let’s talk about it!

In gratitude,

Carla Andrade-Maston, NEWS Youth Prevention Services Manager
