Building Healthy Relationships: A Plug and Play Activity for Youth

Teaching adolescents how to form safe and healthy relationships is a key part of helping them refrain from engaging in risk-taking behaviors as well as improving their reproductive health outcomes and emotional and social wellbeing. Designed to supplement your organization’s programming with middle and high school youth, this engaging lesson will provide youth with information and skills to

  • identify healthy and unhealthy characteristics of relationships;
  • cultivate healthy relationships of all types—with friends, romantic partners, family, classmates, teachers, coworkers, and others; and
  • leave an unhealthy relationship and locate appropriate resources if they are in an unhealthy relationship.

The lesson includes a video with scenarios designed to test students’ knowledge of healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors and an activity for students to create their own scenarios that can be solved in a class discussion.
