Did you know? 1 in 3 teens experiences some form of dating violence. As we wrap up Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, we want to help teens and parents recognize the signs of healthy vs. unhealthy relationships. Healthy relationships should include: ✅ Respect – Your feelings and boundaries matter. ✅ Trust – You shouldn’t have to “prove” your love. ✅ Communication – Talking openly, without fear. ✅ Support – Encouraging your goals and well-being. Warning Signs of Unhealthy Relationships: ❌ Control over who you see and talk to. ❌ Constant jealousy or put-downs. ❌ Pressuring or guilting you into things. If you’re a parent, educator, or mentor, start the conversation early. Teens deserve relationships that uplift, not harm. Know someone who could use this info?

Black history is American history. This Black History Month, we honor the trailblazers and changemakers who paved the way for justice and empowerment. From Sojourner Truth to Tarana Burke, Black women have long led the fight against racism, gender-based violence, and inequality. #BlackHistoryMonth #YWCA #BlackExcellence #EmpoweringWomen (fb)
