Vote for healthy relationships! Break the Cycle is honored to be nominated as an outstanding “Youth Developer” for the 2012 American Giving Awards. This is the “Academy Awards” for non-profits. We’re talking celebrity red carpet event, national, primetime television and the opportunity to win up to $1,000,000!

For the first time ever, we have the chance to bring our issue onto the national stage and talk about improving access to justice, supporting healthy relationships, increasing safety and building stronger communities. Together, we can make sure every young person knows that they deserve healthy relationships — no matter who they are, where they live or who they love.

Our Big Idea for 2013

Count Me In!

It’s time to talk about healthy relationships with our kids, students, friends, family, colleagues and neighbors. Winning an American Giving Award will help launch our biggest public education campaign yet, getting information to schools, homes, malls, gyms and computers across the country. Together, we’ll help one million young people discover how they can prevent and end dating abuse!

Here’s How it Works

  • Voting goes from November 27-December 4, 2012.
  • You only get one vote.
  • You must be a Facebook user to participate.
