RECOGNIZE HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS

Is your relationship with your partner a Healthy Relationship? A Healthy Relationship has these qualities:

Respect
Equality
Negotiation/Fairness
Honesty & Accountability
Trust & Support
Non-Threatening Behavior
Economic Partnership

Unhealthy relationships
where there is abuse or violence - are much more common then we would like to imagine.

One in three teens who are dating are in an abusive relationship.
(Elias, Marilyn. "Violence Grows in Teen Relationships", USA Today, April 1, 1997.)

Nearly one-third of American women (31 percent) report being physically assaulted by a current or former spouse, cohabitating partner, or date at some time in the lifetime, according to the National Violence Against Women survey, conducted from November 1995 to May 1996. (The Commonwealth Fund, Health Concerns Across a Woman’s Lifespan: 1998 Survey of Women’s Health, May 1999.)
