Teens Lead the Conversation About Healthy Relationships

Last week, nearly 60 local teens gathered for an interactive Teens for Healthy Relationships Conference. With support from the Teen Dating Violence Committee and CRC's prevention team, Luis Canseco and Veronica Lopez, teens explored what healthy relationships look like and led discussions on respect, safety and prevention.

CEO Blog: Why February's Lessons Matter

In this month’s CEO blog, John reflects on Black History Month, Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month and how advocacy and education help prevent violence and promote lasting change in our communities. Read more about the role respect plays in creating a safer future for all.

Our Carlsbad Resale Store is Relocating
