Tips for having healthy and safe relationships

• Get to know a person by talking on the phone or at school before you go out for the first time.
• Go out with a group of friends to a public place the first few times you go out.
• Plan fun activities like going to the movies or the mall, on a picnic or for a walk.
• Tell the other person what you feel okay doing. Also, tell the person what time your parents/guardians want you to be home.
• Tell at least one friend and your parents/guardians who you are going out with and where you are going. Also tell them how to reach you.
