Are you able to sport violence in a relationship? Do you know how to support a friend in an unhealthy relationship? To help answer these questions, Casa de Esperanza established Youth Amig@s, a program that engages Latinas in high school, creating a space for these questions to be addressed in a culturally responsive manner. Youth Amig@s' approach is to build capacity beyond just identifying the dynamics of teen dating violence and explore skills and resources needed to combat this problem. The blog talk radio will explore:
- Warning signs of an unhealthy relationship
- Different types of abuse in relationships and how to support a friend that is experiencing an unhealthy relationship
- Consent and how culture influences this idea
Presenters include Ivette Izea-Martinez, Nallely Castro Montoya, and Karla T. Ayala
