Jennifer Ann's Group

Support Us to Stop Teen Dating Violence

TEEN DATING VIOLENCE


44% of all students have been in an abusive relationship by the time they graduate from college.



Unfortunately 81% of parents do not realize the dangers of dating violence and the majority of schools do not teach young people about this important information. Jennifer Ann's Group provides free educational resources to schools, parents, and to adolescents to help prevent future violence.


We have provided over 500,000 free educational cards and bookmarks to schools, churches, and other organizations throughout the U.S.






GAMING AGAINST VIOLENCE


In addition to traditional resources, we also produce, publish, and research prosocial games designed to help young people. These games are an award-winning and evidence-based approach to violence prevention.



Since 2008 we have been producing non-violent video games that engage, educate, and empower young people about important issues. Many of our published games are about sensitive issues like consent, healthy relationships, and teen dating violence prevention.


We also have games that focus on supporting the use and growth of protective factors such as critical thinking, social connectedness, and resilience. Protective factors promote well-being, violence prevention, and strong communities.



Our games reflect are guided by subject matter experts, are trauma informed, and have been designed in collaboration with independent game developers worldwide. As of 2024 we have collaborated with people or organizations from Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Colombia, England, France, India, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, Ukraine, U.S.A., and Vanuatu.






SUPPORT OUR UNIQUE APPROACH TO VIOLENCE PREVENTION


Your support will help fund the development and dissemination of these prosocial games. It will also help us to create guides for parents to use these games at home and to create lesson plans for educators to use in the classroom. Donations also help us translate these games into other languages.



We believe in the power of games for good -- with your help we can continue to help young people around the world.
