Healthy Relationships


Healthy relationships are not exclusive to romantic intimacy. For college students, learning how to improve their relationships with family, friends, roommates, and peers is a part of the growth process as they further their education. Whether they are confronted by interpersonal issues between roommates or decide to join a social student organization, navigating all types of relationships can be confusing and even stressful. Our health educators will provide an open and safe space for conversation about healthy and unhealthy relationships.

 

This presentation will meet the following objectives:

  • Students will be able to list the different types of relationships that exist outside romantic relationships.

  • Students will understand ways to manage conflict, deal with confrontation, and diffuse anger.

  • Students will learn about the need for consent and deciding when, where, and how to set limits.

  • Students will be able to recognize signs of violence and abuse that may be present in a relationship.

  • Students will learn about ways to improve communication between themselves and others.

  • Students will be able to identify resources on campus where they can get help for interpersonal issues.
