Interfaith Youth Forum:

The Interfaith Youth Forum: Love Is Not Abuse that was set for August 22, 2010 has been postponed until 2011. No Youth Forum will be held on August 22, 2010. Check back for more information.

The Interfaith Youth Forums welcome high school students and youth workers to receive the necessary education and tools on the topics of family violence and teen dating abuse from an interfaith perspective. Participants learn how to be advocates in their school and faith communities and their circle of family and friends. While the conference is free, registration is necessary and spots are limited.
