Unplanned pregnancy, single parenting, and troubled relationships are a serious threat to the wellbeing and futures of many young adults, as well as to their children.
Love Notes v2.0 (newly revised) was created for this vulnerable, high-risk audience. In 13 lessons they discover, often for the first time, how to make wise choices about partners, sex, relationships, pregnancy, and more.
Love Notes takes an innovative approach to these topics by integrating relationship skills with pregnancy prevention and practical strategies for motivating change.
Love Notes uses popular media and lively activities to engage young males as well as females in learning. Key topics include:
- Knowing yourself
- Forming and maintaining healthy relationships
- Frameworks for assessing relationships and making decisions
- Recognizing unhealthy relationships and responding to dangerous ones
- Effective communication and conflict management skills
- Intimacy, sexual values, pacing relationships and sex, and planning for choices
- The Success Sequence
