Abstract

Dating violence represents a significant public health challenge. Recent data indicates an increase in its prevalence, with serious consequences for the victims, making intervention necessary. A theoretical-reflective methodology was used, supported by bibliographic research. Recent national findings show an increase in the legitimization of physical violence, control, and stalking. The consequences for victims range from low self-esteem to suicidal behavior. The results are unanimous in reinforcing the importance of prevention and raising awareness about healthy relationships. The specialist nurse in community and public health plays an important role in raising awareness and educating young people about the issue, due to their specific competencies. The lack of studies highlights the need for further research to build evidence that enables effective intervention.
