Testimonials

“I learned about healthy relationships and what’s right and wrong in relationships and I also learned more about how I can deal with an unhealthy relationship. I like the atmosphere in this program its very open and I feel it’s a safe place to talk about feelings and personal things.”
– Youth participant

“I learned about the main stereotypes, how to better tell the difference between a healthy and unhealthy relationship, and how to help people going through a hard time.”
– Youth participant

“This is content that is not always easily offered for students with these needs. It was well organized and presented in a way that made sense for these students. Instructor responded well to feedback and made an environment that allowed students to feel comfortable.”
– Teacher of students with disabilities

“You did an amazing job getting your points across and making it fun at the same time. You also did an amazing job letting everyone know that they are not alone and can seek help if they need it.”
– Youth Participant
