" Is someone you know in an abusive relationship? In Seventeen&amp;#039;s October issue, we talked about our involvement with Liz Claiborne&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s Time to Talk Day,&amp;quot; which is part of the Love Is Not Abuse program. We started getting involved with this program a while ago, and the impact it&amp;#039;s had on people across the country has been great. Take, for instance, Kristie Carter, a Seventeen reader, who saw a story we did in a previous issue in which we talked about a girl who was being abused by her boyfriend. We had given a URL to loveisrespect.org at the end of the story, and Kristie was being abused by her boyfriend, too, so she went to the site and found help. Today, Kristie and I will be discussing teen dating violence with radio talk-show hosts across the country. You can hear my first live interview at 1:40 p.m. today on the WDAY 970am syndicated show, live in Minnesota and the Dakotas. I&amp;#039;ll keep you updated on my other interviews as they happen, so keep checking in! XO, A "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
