Healthy Teen Relationships

Healthy Teen Relationships

Supporting Alaska Native Youth

Respect for both oneself and others is a key characteristic of healthy youth relationships. In contrast, in unhealthy relationships, one partner tries to  exert control and power over the other physically, sexually, and/or emotionally.

Healthy Relationships Plus Program

Workshop – December 16 & 17, 2020
