Research is sought on the criminal justice system’s response to sexual violence and stalking; the extent of the problem of teen dating violence and characteristics of abusive teen relationships; and evaluation of the impact and effectiveness of teen dating violence programs, policies, and legislation in addressing teen dating violence.
