End Dating Violence and Support Survivors Now

The Issue

Dating violence is a silent epidemic, affecting those from various social, economic, and cultural backgrounds, yet remaining largely ignored. Every year, about 1.5 million high school students in the U.S. experience physical abuse from a dating partner; it's not just an issue facing adults (NCADV).

 Abusive relationships can lead to severe emotional trauma, physical injuries, and even loss of life. Yet, victims often struggle to seek help due to societal stigma and lack of resources. This must change. We are calling for increased public awareness, the implementation of educational programs that warn about the signs of abuse in relationships, and the bolstering of support systems for victims.

Join us in bringing this critical issue to light. Take a stand against dating violence; lend your voice to empower survivors. Sign the petition and make a difference today.
