Teen Dating Violence: Runaway and Homeless Youth

History

The Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence (FCADV) is pleased to introduce a new program created to assist Florida's domestic violence advocates, sexual violence and rape crisis advocates, and runaway and homeless youth service providers with the issue of teen dating violence. Teen Dating Violence Among Runaway and Homeless Youth includes a user-friendly curriculum complete with practical information regarding the complexities and dynamics of dating violence. One goal of the project is to increase domestic and sexual violence advocates' and runaway youth workers' knowledge of and competency in direct service provision to runaway adolescents who experience dating violence. Both intervention and prevention strategies are explored and a wealth of resources is provided including protocols for working with youth experiencing teen dating violence.

FCADV formed an Advisory Board consisting of experts from the following organizations:

The Advisory Board was responsible for providing guidance and expertise on the development of the curriculum and model intervention protocols for working with runaway or homeless youth experiencing dating violence.

FCADV will be adding additional information to this site including model collaborative protocols.

Please contact FCADV at (850) 425-2749 for assistance or more information.
