Each year in February, programs and resources unite across the country in effort to raise awareness about healthy relationships in teen dating. Throughout the month of February, you will learn about resources and have the opportunity to join us at two exciting events here at Fort Benning!
The Fort Benning Family Advocacy Program (FAP) is hosting a “Teen Talk” about Cyber Safety - a great opportunity to ensure your teen is aware of the dangers of the internet and how to maintain safety online. Join the FAP team at the Middle School & Teen Program, Building 1055, for the “Teen Talk” about Cyber Safety event from 2 - 3 p.m. on February 14! Registration is not required, but teens must be enrolled with CYS to attend. Space is limited! To enroll with CYS, visit Parent Central, Building 104, 6880 Marchant Avenue, or call 706-545-2079.
FAP also invites you to “Strike Out Teen Dating Violence” to “strike out” teen dating violence and “strike up” healthy conversations while spending quality time together. Stop by the Mall Bowling Center, Building 9232, on Saturday, February 25 from 12 - 2p.m. and enjoy a free game of bowling and shoe rental! This event is offered on a first-come, first-served basis for the first 50 guests.
You are invited to join us for one or both events or follow along this month as we raise awareness of healthy teen relationships and provide resources for anyone experiencing unsafe or abusive relationships, specifically for teens in the community!
If you are in need of support or would like to speak with a FAP advocate, please call +1 (706) 544-7233.
