In the wake of arrests at Venice High School, we look at how campuses can foster safety and curriculum designed to prevent teen sexual violence. From how to draw boundaries with a partner, to respectful use of social media, groups like Break the Cycle talk with teens about healthy romantic and sexual relationships.
