The prevalence and consequences of teen dating violence make it a public health concern that requires early and effective prevention. To date, only three prevention strategies -- Safe Dates, the Youth Relationships Project, and 4th R - have demonstrated reductions in dating violence behaviors in rigorous, controlled evaluations. In order to protect young people and build an evidence-base of effective prevention strategies, evaluation of additional programs is needed, including those programs currently in the field. Expect Respect Support Groups (developed and currently provided by SafePlace) is currently in use in the Austin Independent School District. The ERSG has demonstrated favorable, albeit preliminary, results in an uncontrolled program evaluation, which strongly suggests s that a controlled evaluation is needed to more rigorously examine program effects. The proposed study has two primary goals and two exploratory aims. The primary goals are: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness of Expect Respect Support Groups (ERSG) in preventing and reducing teen dating violence and 2. Comparing whether there is increased healthy conflict resolution skills reported by at-risk male and female middle and high school students supported by ERSG, compared to at-risk students in control schools who do not receive ERSG. The exploratory aims are: 1) To evaluate whether or not the effectiveness of ERSG is enhanced by the presence of a universal, school-wide prevention programs, and 2) To examine whether participants with different characteristics respond differently to the intervention. For example, we will determine whether outcome for boys or girls are the same.

The non-substantive change request for addition of a fidelity measure to be completed by the ERSG facilitators' supervisor will increase the burden to the facilitators' supervisor by 4 hours, but does not change the scope of the project. The goals of the project remain the same, and the additional fidelity measure will be used for program improvement purposes.
