2023 | National Teen Dating Violence Awareness & Prevention Month

Accountability in Healthy Relationships is a school-based campaign based on The Four Parts of Accountability & How to Give a Genuine Apology by Mia Mingus and created for February’s National Teen Dating Violence Awareness & Prevention Month by the Idaho Coalition Against Sexual & Domestic Violence that engages middle school and high school-aged students in conversations about accountability in healthy relationships.

Conflict, misunderstandings, or small harms can all happen in healthy relationships – ignoring someone’s feelings, acting like you are better than them, saying something offhand that is rude or mean, small lies, or not following through with a promise. Accountability is about being responsible for your choices and the consequences of your choices.

Order FREE campaign materials today for your school, youth organization, or community (materials will be ready for shipping in mid January). All materials are FREE for OVW Rural grantees or potential grantees (postage waived with RuralGrantee) and FREE for Idaho secondary schools (postage waived with coupon code IdahoSchools) as long as supplies are available.
