Healthy Dating Series: THEM

As part of our Sexual Assault Awareness Month programming, we are partnering with The Ion Center For Violence Prevention to bring local teens a Healthy Dating Series, open to everyone ages 13-17. Come to one night or all three!

In the final session, we’ll use dynamic activities and discussions to:

  • recognize the predatory behaviors that often lead to sexual assault.

  • learn the “4Ds” of bystander intervention, so we know what to do if we see someone else in trouble.

  • evaluate our level of responsibility to others to help our community stay safe.

  • identify when it’s safe for us to intervene and when we need help from others.

Registration: FREE. Donations of personal-care products (soap, toothpaste, shampoo, lotion, etc.) will be collected for the ION Center’s domestic violence shelters and are much appreciated.

Pizza, snacks, and drinks provided!.
