Healthy Emotions & Attitudes in Relationships for Teens (H.E.A.R.T.)

In June 2005, Laura’s House launched a new website designed to assist teens who are seeking information on healthy relationships.

The website is an expansion of the Healthy Emotions and Attitudes in Relationships for Teens (H.E.A.R.T) program that is geared for at-risk children and teens. Click here to view our H.E.A.R.T. brochure.

By educating children on healthy relationships and appropriate conflict resolution skills, we hope to prevent violence before it starts.

Workshops on healthy relationships are held at numerous schools and youth facilities in the county. Please click here to see our flyer. For more information contact Marissa Presley at (949) 361-3775 x213 or mpresley@laurashouse.org
