Sometimes it’s all about a name. How could I not take a closer look at an organization called Day One when I was browsing Idealist? Their name doesn’t tell you much about what they do, but it makes sense with a little context. Day One is a non-profit that “partners with New York City youth to end dating abuse and domestic violence through community education, supportive services, legal advocacy and leadership development.” Abuse and domestic violence are issues that affect people of all ages, but teenagers are especially susceptible. When you have little relationship and life experience, how are you supposed to know what is ok and what isn’t? Where do you go for help? How do you get out? Those are all questions that Day One helps teens answer.
Day One’s home page is headline by some startling statistics. Some that really stood out to me included “1 in 3 teens report experiencing some kind of abuse in their romantic relationships, including verbal and emotional abuse” and “women aged 16-24 experience the highest per capita rate of intimate partner violence, triple the national average.” Day One is working to make New York City a safer place for teens by offering a wide array of services based on “an empowerment model that invests young people in maintaining safe relationships for themselves and their peers.” Day One offers printed guides, a toll-free hotline, a text line, online chat, and in-person support. The goal is education, organization, and advocacy. Day One is doing really important work, so if you want to join them you should take a look at their jobs on Idealist. Right now they’re looking for a Program & Development Associate and a Community Educator. Both positions look like they could be a good fit for a new or recent grad.
