During Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month (February), OAG is responding to increased requests for trainings by co-hosting its first #RelationshipGoals summit for high school students with the DC Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Break the Cycle. During the summit, OAG aims to train student ambassadors on how to talk to their peers about identifying healthy relationships and eliminating unhealthy behaviors. Through interactive panels and discussion, this unique event will show students the signs of emotional abuse, physical abuse, and cyber abuse and provide them with resources on making smart decisions for their safety.
This teen summit will take place on Friday, February 21, from noon to 5:00 p.m. at R.I.S.E. Demonstration Center (2730 MLK Jr. Ave. SE) and will include a free lunch, giveaways, and a chance to earn school community service credits. High school students who wish to attend can register for this FREE event and learn more by contacting OAGCommunity@dc.gov.
