                                 BILL NUMBER:  S4528

 TITLE OF BILL :

An act to amend the public health law, in relation to the creation of
a school-based teen dating violence prevention program

 PURPOSE :

This bill will promote the education of students regarding teen dating
violence.

 SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :

Section one amends the public health law by adding a new section 25 to
require the commissioner of health, in cooperation with the
commissioner of education and county boards of cooperative extension,
to encourage the establishment of a school-based teen dating violence
prevention program as provided in the section. The section further
provides that: (i) the program shall be designed to be incorporated
into a school district's existing health curriculum; (ii) the program
shall include, among other things, age-appropriate information about
health relationships and teen dating violence as outlined, and
training programs for teachers, administrators, nurses, and mental
health staff from kindergarten through twelfth grade; (iii) certain
defined terms; and (iv) the commissioner of health may administer

directly or through contract, within the amount of funds allocated and
within amounts appropriated, the teen dating violence prevention
program.

Section two establishes the effective date.

 JUSTIFICATION :

Teen dating violence is a critical public health concern in New York
State and throughout the United States. The New York State Department
of Health (DOH) posts on its website a fact sheet, "Dating Violence
Prevention, Teens aged 13 to 19 years," that addresses teen dating
violence, and provides information to caregivers and parents. In order
to combat teen dating violence more effectively; however, DOH should
also encourage educational initiatives that educate children, as well
as educators, about this issue. Prevention is achievable by educating
children and adolescents, with particular focus on characteristics of
healthy relationships and families.

The prevalence of teen dating violence, particularly in schools, is
alarming, and victims can suffer vicious and lasting effects. One
study revealed that one-third of youth in the United States reported
having been the victim of teen dating violence in their lifetimes
("National Rates of Adolescent Physical, Psychological, and Sexual
Teen-Dating Violence," 2013). Another study uncovered that incidents
of teen dating violence often take place on school grounds, where
students spend a great deal of time. "42% of males and 43.2% of
females who reported abuse stated that this abuse occurred in a school
building or on school grounds" (Molidor, C. and Tolman, R.

(1998). Gender and Contextual Factors in Adolescent Dating Violence.
Violence Against Women 4(2), 180-194, at 189). For victims, the
experiences may be traumatic, and "for both boys and girls, dating
violence victimization is related to reports of lower psychological
well-being" (Callahan, M., Tolman, R. and Saunders, D. (2003)
Adolescent Dating Violence Victimization and Psychological Well-Being,
Journal of Adolescent Research 18 (6) 664-681, at 676).  The Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that victims are more
likely to be victimized again, and that "blouth who experience dating
violence are more likely to experience the following: symptoms of
depression and anxiety; engagement in unhealthy behaviors, such as
tobacco and drug use, and alcohol; involvement in antisocial
behaviors; thoughts about suicide."

The CDC, among other U.S. government agencies, recommend education and
prevention programs in schools to reduce dating violence and to foster
healthy relationships. Currently, New York State law mandates that the
health curriculum include education generally on interpersonal
violence and violence prevention, as well as child development and
parental responsibilities. However, teen dating violence education is
not specifically required. It is imperative children are taught to
recognize inappropriate and harmful behaviors early on, particularly
to establish societal norms at an early age.  The health curriculum
should include specific age appropriate education topics, such as
healthy relationships, behaviors in the home, problem solving,
communication, and safety and teen dating violence. Schools should
also develop guidelines for responding to incidents of teen dating
violence, since victims may experience trauma, symptoms of depression,
suicidal thoughts and inappropriate behaviors, all of which may
threaten their academic and long-term psychological well-being.

Teen dating violence is a serious public health concern, and our
efforts to address this issue must focus on prevention, specifically
through health education in schools. Several states have passed
legislation to include teen dating violence education in the health
curriculum of public schools; these states include Arizona, Delaware,
Florida, Illinois and Ohio. By requiring DOH to encourage the
establishment of a school-based teen dating violence prevention
program in the health curriculum, we would be better able to help our
youth recognize inappropriate and harmful behaviors, prevent violence
in dating relationships and improve the health, safety and well-being
of our children as they move through elementary and secondary
education to college and beyond.

 LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :

New bill.

 FISCAL IMPLICATIONS :

None.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
This act shall take effect immediately.

BILL NUMBER: S4528A

SPONSOR: MURPHY
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the education law, in relation to the
creation of a school-based teen dating violence prevention program

 
PURPOSE:

To promote education of students regarding teen dating violence.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section one amends the Public Health Law by adding a new Section 56.

a. To require the Commissioner of Education, in cooperation with the
Commissioner of Health, the Office for the Prevention of Domestic
Violence and organizations that promote teen dating violence awareness
and healthy relationship behaviors to establish a school-based teen
dating violence prevention program that shall include:

(i) age-appropriate curriculum, lesson plans and best practices for

students, parents and school personnel to promote teen dating violence
prevention and healthy relationship behaviors;

(ii) instructional tools for students, parents and school personnel on
healthy relationship behaviors and teen dating violence awareness and
prevention;

(iii) materials related to teen dating violence prevention and education
provided at no cost to every school entity that are also made publicly
available on the department's webpage.

b. Outlines that the Commissioner shall issue a guidance memorandum to
schools and inform them about the prevention and education program.  The
Commissioner should urge schools to work with local organizations to
develop policies and procedures on responding to incidents of teen
dating violence and healthy relationship initiatives.

Section two sets forth the effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

The prevalence of teen dating violence, particularly in schools, is
alarming and victims can suffer vicious and lasting effects. One study
revealed that one third of youth in the United States reported having
been the victim of teen dating violence in their lifetimes ("National
Rates of Adolescent Physical, Psychological, and Sexual Teen-Dating
Violence," 2013). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, among
other U.S. government agencies recommend education and prevention
programs in schools to reduce dating violence and to foster healthy
relationships.

As New York's programming and training leader for domestic violence
services and prevention, the New York Coalition Against Domestic
Violence (NYSCADV) has done extensive work in this area. It has devel-
oped a curriculum on teen dating violence prevention and healthy
relationships, which could serve as a model for this program.


The most effective programs are community-based with, collaboration
between the school and local organizations that promote teen dating
violence awareness. Several schools have successfully worked with local
domestic violence organizations to implement teen dating violence
prevention programs, and such collaboration should be encouraged state-
wide. As the statewide membership organization of local direct service
domestic violence programs, NYSCADV can facilitate connections between
schools and local organizations to develop policies and procedures to
best respond to incidents of teen dating violence and to foster healthy
relationship behaviors among our school-age children across the state.

Teen dating violence is a serious public health concern, and our efforts
to address this issue must focus on prevention, specifically through
education in schools. Several states have passed legislation to include
teen dating violence education in the health curriculum of public
schools, including Arizona, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, and Ohio. By
requiring NYS Department of Education to establish a school based teen
dating violence prevention program, we will be better able to help our
children and youth recognize inappropriate and harmful behaviors,
prevent violence in dating relationships, and improve the health, safety
and well-being of our children.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

This is a new bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

To be determined.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately.
