According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Teen Dating Violence (TDV) is an adverse childhood experience that affects millions of teens in the U.S. The Love & Volleyball Charity Tournament will take place to educate and raise awareness of TDV. TDV is a national issue that not only impacts teens, but also has an impact on parents, teachers, friends, and the community as a whole.
