“Our elected women know that grassroots support is an essential building block to their legislative efforts.  The parents who are members of the MADE coalition are the driving force behind these critical legislative efforts to prevent teen dating violence and our elected women nationwide look forward to working with parent advocates in their states to change thought, raise awareness, and implement educational programs to protect the teens in their state.”

“As a parent, as Rhode Island's Attorney General and now, as president of the National Association of Attorneys General, I have made it my priority to do everything in my power to protect children and teenagers from harm. My colleagues and I are honored to join with Liz Claiborne Inc. and all of MADE's partners to actively promote legislation that establishes dating violence education in schools in each and every state in our nation. Together, we are creating a more seamless and effective system of combating teen dating abuse and freeing our young people from a terrible and terrifying cycle of violence.”

“Educating teens about dating abuse is important work. Connecting with girls about dating abuse will mean fewer battered women in our society. I believe that it is partnerships such as MADE that can, and will, raise awareness nationally, and give young people the tools they need to develop healthy relationships.”
