Start Strong

Start Strong is an initiative of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in collaboration with Futures Without Violence to promote healthy relationships and prevent dating violence among 11- to 14-year-olds in eleven Start Strong communities.

Break the Cycle, in collaboration with Futures Without Violence and a team of national experts, drafted a Middle School Policy for the Start Strong sites. Each community is working to create an effective, comprehensive response to dating violence on and off campus.
