Categorizing Relationships; a Framework for Healthy Boundaries

I appreciated the importance of clarity and specificity in defining relationships and “appropriate” behavior.
— The Arc of Oregon participant

Description:

Learn how to build a framework for someone that can serve as an evolving tool for teaching about different relationship categories - including appropriate behaviors, boundaries, consent, and characteristics of healthy relationships. This tool can grow along with someone as they age and build upon itself. It can help someone recognize abusive behaviors and learn about the consequences of unsafe, unhealthy, and illegal behaviors.
