In this webinar, we will be discussing how youth advocates can address teen dating violence in Tribal communities.
1 in 12 US high school students experience physical dating violence (https://t.co/0tpveJx68B).
Native teens deserve to be taught healthy relationship skills like consent and boundaries to prevent #TeenDatingViolence. Violence is not traditional.
