NEW BRITAIN — The Beehive Bridge will be lit in orange until Friday to raise awareness of Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month.

“All too often our teenagers experience abusive, manipulative behaviors from a person they are dating that leave them scared and unsure where to turn,” New Britain Mayor Erin Stewart said. “The city’s partnership with the Prudence Crandall Center allows us to do extremely important outreach work so that we can prevent our youth from harmful dating experiences, while also providing them with life saving resources should they find themselves in a dangerous situation.”
