Equipping coaches to talk about relationships

Coaches are role models. Their relationships with their athletes give them influence and credibility.  

We train coaches in our city's schools and community athletic programs to:

• Talk to their athletes about healthy relationships
• Reinforce the idea that violence never equals strength

Their athletes learn to:

• Recognize dating and relationship violence
• Stand up for healthy relationship behaviors
• Solve problems without using violence
• Set a positive example for peers

This program is based on a national model. National data shows athletes who completed the program were more likely to:

• Intervene when witnessing abusive or disrespectful behaviors among their peers. 
• Report less engagement in abusive behavior.
