So you need to satisfy the Campus SaVE requirements? Sure! But here's an even more important reason why your students need to hear "Have You Been Hit by Love?"
The statistics don't lie! Since approximately 1 in 10 high school students and 22% of college students will encounter physical violence in a relationship, the odds are it’s happening on your campus. You can help save the lives of our students by ensuring they understand how common the problem is and how it should safely be handled.
The numbers are startling! On average, more than 3 women are murdered in this country every day by a boyfriend or spouse. But domestic violence isn’t just limited to women-men are victims too.
In this personal, honest and funny (yes, DeeDee is funny in spite of or because of her experiences) discussion, students will understand how easily they or someone they know could wind up in a potentially fatal relationship. When you bring DeeDee to speak to your students, they will learn:
* How to tell the difference between love and obsession
* What defines a healthy vs. an unhealthy relationship
* The cycle of domestic violence and why it continues in silence
* If it’s not physical, can it be domestic violence?
* 9 signs that students need to look for to identify if they or someone they know has been “hit by love.”
* How to effectively and safely leave an unhealthy relationship
