Curricula
Uproot Abuse in a Generation
BringLove365 curricula consist of research-based, evidence informed, and teen relevant lessons to enhance the confidence, skills and knowledge of students to build safe and healthy relationships, free of abuse and violence. Lessons, called "doses," are delivered in-person and online in schools and community settings by trained BLOOM365 Advocates or certified facilitators from member schools and organizations across the U.S.
Each lesson, or "dose," is driven by measurable objectives that align with the core standards for health education. Upon completing the interactive curriculum, youth, teens and young adults who have experienced, witnessed or perpetrated victimization know where to get help and how to help a friend. Ongoing advocacy, counseling and peer support services are available to all 13-24 year old youth impacted by abuse online. In person wrap around services are also available in select partner school and community based sites.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
— Name, Title
"After learning the statistics on Teen Dating Abuse on the first day of my 7-Doses training, I had a bittersweet realization that I was not alone. Thus, it has been the hallmark of my education, activism, and advocacy in High School and with bloom365. bloom365 has filled me with hope that future generations will have healthy role models to guide and support them throughout their decisions within all types of relationships. I also am excited for the day when victims of teen dating abuse no longer feel alone. Furthermore, as a friend, girlfriend, future doctor, and future mother I know the knowledge I have gained will continue to be utilized throughout my lifetime."
