Expect Respect Healthy Relationships Toolkit

Expect Respect Healthy Relationships Toolkit

Understand healthy, respectful relationships

The toolkit also supports young people to understand that everyone has the right to feel safe, valued, heard and respected in their relationships.

The Expect Respect Healthy Relationships Toolkit is an engaging and practical program designed to help young people understand what healthy, respectful relationships look and feel like.

The program provides a safe and supportive space for young people to explore topics including respect, communication, trust, boundaries, consent, equality, emotions, conflict and personal safety. Through age-appropriate activities and discussions, participants are encouraged to recognise the difference between healthy and unhealthy behaviours and develop the confidence to make positive choices in their relationships.
