The Youth Voices Network gives voice to survivors of dating abuse with the goal of helping youth build safe and healthy relationships. A group made up of young survivors, the Youth Voices Network aims to let other young people know that they are not alone, raise awareness about warning signs of abuse, and direct survivors to helpful resources. Sharing their stories offers the survivors an opportunity to heal and transform their experiences of pain into a powerful tool for change.
The Youth Voices Network welcomes new members. Our members are survivors of youth dating violence up to age 28, who have experienced intimate partner violence or dating abuse as a teen or young adult.
