SAFE & HealthY RELATIONSHIPS
Why Are Safe and Healthy Relationships Important for CUNY Student Success?
In the transition from adolescence to adulthood, establishing and maintaining healthy relationships and promoting sexual and reproductive health are key developmental tasks. Success sets a foundation for lifetime health while problems such as unwanted pregnancies, lack of support for parenting young children, or partner violence can interrupt schooling or make life miserable. With two-thirds of CUNY students between the ages 18 and 25, sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and healthy relationships are a central feature of their lives.
