School Counselors' Role in Dating Violence Intervention
Craigen, Laurie M.; Sikes, April; Healey, Amanda; Hays, Danica
Journal of School Counseling, v7 n18 2009
Dating violence among adolescents is a major public health concern. The purpose of this paper is to examine five factors of which school counselors must be aware in order to recognize, intervene, and report incidence of dating violence. These factors are (a) understanding the diverse definitions of dating violence, (b) recognizing dating violence indicators, (c) having knowledge of the peer influences related to dating violence, (d) understanding the process of the disclosure of dating violence, and (e) various ethical considerations related to dating violence. Also included in this paper are future implications for school counselors.
