Prevention Peer Network: H.A.R.R.T. Youth Led Adolescent Relationship Abuse Prevention Model
Webinar
Haven of Stanislaus County piloted a school-based,
youth-led model of adolescent relationship abuse (ARA) prevention
at a Modesto high school in the 2014-15 school year. The program
was replicated in 2016-17 at a second school and is evolving into
a Coalition for the 2017-18 school year. The Healthy And
Responsible Relationships Troop Coalition (HARRT Coalition)
prepares high school students to serve as advocates and peer
educators both on campus and off. Their mission is to raise
awareness about ARA and promote healthy relationship behaviors.
Haven Youth Program Manager, Holly Grace Currie and H.A.R.R.T.
graduate, Jayme Jensen will co-facilitate this webinar.

• How the H.A.R.R.T. program was developed
• How to leverage funding opportunities
• Strategies for program implementation
• Challenges and lessons learned
• Forging and sustaining school/DV agency collaborative
partnerships
