Dating violence is a pervasive issue that affects young adults disproportionately. According to statistics, nearly 1 in 3 young people experience abuse in a dating relationship. Students navigating the complexities of relationships and independence, are particularly vulnerable. This workshop seeks to educate from a survivor standpoint, empower, and equip students with the knowledge and tools needed to recognize the signs of unhealthy relationships, set boundaries, advocate for themselves and others and understand what a healthy relationship constitutes.
