150 Word Blog "Are there enough programs to help teens who are abusive?

Some people wonder are there many programs that help abusive teens. I researched on the internet and I found a website called http://www.loveisrespect.org/. On this website I found alot of information. I found other links to some similar websites as well. They didn't have as much information though. On loveisrespect.org there are crisis hotlines, names of safe places you can go to, or where to go for help. There are also peer advocate hotlines, and blogs. Loveisrespect, National Teen Dating Abuse Helpline was launches in Feb. 2007 with help from founding sponsor, Liz Clairborne Inc. Feb. 2nd to the 6th is the fourth annual Teen Dating Violence Awareness andPrevention Week. None of the other websites had as much information or as much help as Loveisrespect.org has to offer. My answer is no, I do not think that there are enough programs to help abusive teens.
