Overview

Who It's For

The program is for 12 to 18-year-old high school students and is usually offered in partnership with schools during school hours, on school premises.

How We Help

Our facilitators give young people the opportunity to learn how they can support themselves and others as they navigate the growing variety of relationships in their lives.

What to Expect

Students are given an opportunity to share their experiences and feelings about relationships in their own lives. They also discuss their thoughts and understanding of what constitutes a healthy relationship. Role-playing is used in a fun and creative way to explore communication techniques.

Young people often experience a number of challenges in their relationships with others, including:

The teenage years can be some of the most important developmentally, yet often there are challenges that accompany all the changes happening in their lives.

Peer pressure

Bullying

Insecurities and low self-esteem

Conflict with their parents due to seeking greater independence

Handling heartbreaks for the first time

Questioning their sexuality

This program is designed to help students:

Understand the meaning of being in a relationship with another person

Identify the characteristics of healthy, unhealthy and abusive relationships

Learn how to interact with others with respect, compassion and understanding

Find ways to effectively communicate with one another

Reflect on the relationships in their own lives

Take skills and understandings into life beyond the school gates

“It impacted me hearing the different types of opinions and types of people in my group at school and the situations they faced.”

“The facilitators running the session were fun and engaging and it was great to have the kids hear about what they should expect from others in a healthy relationship. At times, the information they receive from each other and from the internet does not offer great ideas, so it was fantastic for them to hear such positive messages from an outside source.”
