MaineTeenTalk: Healthy Relationships Education

We are pleased to offer our  Healthy Relationships curriculum-   a unique, research-based educational program designed specifically for teens in Maine.  Interactive chapters provide proven strategies for relationship and communication skill-building. Our 8-hour course makes use of multi-media components, games and role plays.
 
Depression, violence, emotional isolation, cyberbullying, and suicide have reached critical levels in Maine teens.  MaineTeenTalk's Healthy Relationships program offers a proven approach to help address these and other important issues.

MTT's Healthy Relationships curriculum was developed as a "Teach Out Of the Box" (TOOB) resource.  This means that a teacher or any interested professional adult can easily follow our Teacher's Guide and present the information with little preparation time. 
 
Given the cutbacks in the educational community, it's good to know that there is no cost to Maine educators for the materials or support.
  
Please contact us to bring this program to your high school or youth development organization:
