“Red Flags” is a program through the combined effort of the Texas Council for Family Violence and the Texas’ Attorney General’s Office as per the proclamation made on August 27, 2006. Sheryl Cates, of TCFV, states:
“With Red Flags, we hope to reach young Texans at a critical period in their dating lives, helping them learn to distinguish healthy behaviors from more dangerous ones so they, hopefully, never need to call us,” said Sheryl Cates, Chief Executive Officer of the Texas Council on Family Violence and the National Domestic Violence Hotline. “This is the time to learn how to make the best choices in relationships because family and financial commitments can later make it harder for people to break free from violent relationships.”
Various efforts are made through this “Red Flags” program to reach out to as many males and females in the 16-24 age bracket to make them aware of the dangers of unhealthy dating relationships. One such method is through the prominent YouTube.com that caters and markets to much of this age group, as well as others.
