Teen Partner Abuse Training

The day aims to increase knowledge and awareness of teen partner violence and abuse and the impact of social networking.  A change in the way that we communicate and socialise especially for young people has led to an increase in awareness of the prevalence of teen intimate partner abuse.  1 in 5 young people have reported being physically abused by their boyfriend or girlfriend.
