©1997,
National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV) $45 plus shipping and handling |
A
national advisory committee comprised of domestic violence advocates,
educators, service providers, and teens contributed to the development
of this resource manual designed to facilitate the sharing and exchange
of ideas among agencies and programs working with teens to stop dating
violence. Chapter 1 describes the National Advisory Committee's attempt
to assess the scope of the problem nationwide, through surveys of
domestic violence coalitions and state health, education, and justice
departments. Chapter 2 summarizes results of the National Advisory
Committee's own survey and focus group studies of teen dating violence.
Chapter 3 includes descriptions of teen abuse prevention programs
throughout the U.S., bibliographies of recommended readings, and brief
descriptive reviews of videos. Chapter 4 provides a selection of practical
tools such as sample safety plans and relationship assessment checklists
for teens, tips on helping a friend who is in an abusive relationship,
and strategies for gaining access to schools.
Recommended for community-based organizations working with youth and teens to prevent dating violence and relationship abuse.
