Healthy Relationships Program
Standard
Participants will recognize the differences between a healthy and unhealthy relationship.
Rationale
Of the many relationships we may become involved in, romantic relationships seem to be the greatest focus of our energies. Individuals are often unaware of the essential qualities of an "ideal mate" and have difficulty distinguishing between a healthy and unhealthy relationship. Education that stresses our individual right to healthy and positive relationships will generate thoughtful discussion about the dangers of staying in an unhealthy relationship.
