Help reduce teen dating violence through research funding

Girls involved in dating violence are 60% more likely to attempt suicide than other girls. Help us develop materials that will empower parents to talk with their daughters and sons about dating violence before it is too late!

Dr. Stacey Hust and Dr. Kathleen Boyce Rodgers have spent the last three years talking to youth across Washington State, and are ready to take what they’ve learned to help teach parents and teens how to communicate better about romantic and sexual relationships.

With crowdfunded research through the Experiment Adolescence Challenge Grant, you can back research to help parents and teens communicate and problem-solve issues like online sexual harassment, dating violence, unwanted sexual propositions and other challenging topics.
