February is Teen Dating Violence and Prevention Awareness Month. As a school community, let's stay informed about the signs of teen dating violence and know where to turn if you suspect yourself, a friend, or a family member is experiencing dating violence.
Dating violence is never okay in any form. There are many forms of violence to be aware of:
Physical abuse - unwanted and intentional contact with someone's body or something close to their body with the intent to harm.
Emotional and verbal abuse - non-physical behavior such as threats, insults, humiliation, intimidation, isolation, or social media monitoring.
Sexual abuse - force or coercion to perform unwanted sexual acts.
Digital abuse - using social media or texting to intimidate, stalk, or harass someone.
Stalking - when someone follows you or harasses you, causing fear and uncertainty.
For more information on types of abuse, you can visit loveisrespect.org.
It’s important to be aware of signs someone may be a victim of dating abuse. If you have a friend you suspect is experiencing signs of abuse, here are some tips on how you can help them:
Reach out to them and ask if they need help or support. Ensure they’re safe when communicating your concerns, and let them know you are there for them when they need someone.
Listen to them. Let them share their story and remind them it’s not their fault.
Tell a trusted adult. Sometimes, looking out for your friend means letting an adult know something is wrong and allowing them to step in and help.
If you, a friend, or a family member is experiencing abuse, here are resources available to La Grande School District.
