To help your community prevent teen dating violence before it starts, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) developed Dating Matters®: Strategies to Promote Healthy Teen Relationships.
The newly released Dating Matters® Toolkit teaches youth ages 11–14 about respectful, healthy, and nonviolent relationships.
Dating Matters® is based on the current evidence of what works to prevent teen dating violence. It includes prevention strategies for individuals, peers, families, schools, and neighborhoods.
The toolkit provides all of the materials and tools you need, including program implementation guidance and an online training for program facilitators.
