Safe Dates: An Adolescent Dating Abuse Prevention Curriculum

As the only research-based curriculum of its kind, Safe Dates helps young people recognize the difference between healthy, caring, and supportive relationships, and controlling, manipulative, and abusive dating relationships.
Highly engaging and interactive, this evidence-based curriculum gets young people thinking about:

how they want to be treated by a dating partner
how they want to treat a girlfriend or boyfriend
what abusive dating relationships look like
why dating abuse happens and its causes and consequences
how to tell if they are in an abusive relationship
what to do about feelings of anger and jealousy
how to help a friend who might be in an abusive relationship

This program, which has been shown to be effective with both boys and girls, addresses perpetrators of violence as well as victims. It works as both a prevention and intervention tool, with case studies and activities that are relevant for teens who have not started dating as well as those who have been "going out" for a long time.
Consists of nine sessions which can be delivered in as few as four sessions. It features case studies, activities, and a dramatic play on dating abuse that was written by high school students. All handouts are reproducible. Additional program features include:

materials for parents
pre- and post-implementation tools for evaluation
training tips for obtaining support from school staff or community organizations
