National Youth Advisory Board

Everyone can do something, but when it comes to the issue of teen dating violence young people have a tremendous voice. Standing up and speaking out is important but creating activities that get others involved is a movement. The National Youth Advisory Board for loveisrespect, works year round to plan and implement activities to raise awareness of dating violence in their communities. They share the facts and provide tips on safely ending abusive relationships and creating healthy ones.

Sounds pretty exciting right? Well the National Youth Advisory Board is currently taking applications for new members! Learn about the board, what they do and how to get involved at loveisrespect.
