It was Youth Violence Prevention Week. 

Where I originally thought that that would be included in Domestic Violence Month, I was wrong.

Youth Violence is a topic I never thought about so I am sharing all the stuff I have learned. See Below for website to learn more and get involved! 

I also watched the Trials of Gabriel Fernandez, a docuseries, about a young boy who fought for his life while living in an abusive home, it was a moving and hard to watch docuseries but very educational, I even remember hearing about it in the news, I was too young to know the whole story. I believe he would have turned 16 in 2020...
