4 More Domestic Violence Awareness Month Resources
In addition to our free workshop, here are some powerful resources and tools to use with teens during Domestic Violence Awareness Month:
1. Book
My friend Victor Rivas, spokesperson for the National Network to End Domestic Violence, wrote this gripping memoir about his own survival of domestic violence. I feel it is especially powerful for teens to read as Victor tells his story of finally breaking free by telling his truth and getting help.
A Private Family Matter: A Memoir
2. Hotline
U.S. National Domestic Violence Hotline
