The Family Place has also implemented a program aimed at teenage boys who have engaged in abusive behavior toward family members or in dating relationships.  The BRAVE program (Boys Rising Against Violence Everyday) has two age groups, 11 year-olds to 14 year-olds and 14 year-olds to 17 year-olds.  This program focuses on teaching teens how to have a healthy relationship and how to control and change abusive behavior.
