Romantic relationships might bring up a variety of responses for system-involved youth, from excitement to fear and anything in between. Romantic relationships have the potential to evoke your deepest insecurities, vulnerabilities, and fears. They are also powerful places to grow, transform, and inspire. Young people often receive messages about romantic relationships from the media, movies, and the other adults in their lives. Especially for system-involved youth and other marginalized youth, they may have unhealthy experiences of romantic relationships. In this course we will explore how to support young people in approaching romantic relationships from a place of self-love, mindfulness, and empowerment.
