Domestic violence is becoming a pressing problem within the younger generation as people are getting into serious adult relationships at a younger age. There are increasing numbers of teens getting involved in domestic violence situations. We are interested in getting more education within the Junior high and High school curriculum on prevention, resources, and awareness. By signing this petition you are saying you are in support of domestic violence education being incorporated into curriculums.

health class taught us mostly about physical stuff but never about healthy vs toxic relationships. big gap in the system.

Too many teens think jealousy is love. They need to be taught better.
