HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS – Erin’s Law Safe Unsafe Secrets Personal Safety Lesson

re you looking for a meaningful, age-appropriate way to teach high school students about consent, boundaries, relationships, and online safety—without it feeling awkward, overwhelming, or overly simplified? Teaching personal safety and relationship awareness at the secondary level requires a careful balance of respect, depth, and real-world relevance. My Safety Matters: Consent, Boundaries & Online Safety Digital Game (Grades 9–12) is our interactive, Erin’s Law based, trauma-informed Social Emotional Learning (SEL) PowerPoint designed to support students in developing critical thinking, self-awareness, and safe decision-making in complex social situations.

Through structured psychoeducation, realistic scenarios, and guided responses, this resource helps students explore consent, power dynamics, manipulation, digital boundaries, and help-seeking behaviors—while reinforcing the message that their voice matters, their boundaries matter, and they have the right to feel safe and respected in all interactions.

Perfect for school counselors, health teachers, wellbeing coordinators, psychologists, social workers, and secondary educators, this resource supports both whole-class learning and small group discussions in a safe, structured, and engaging format.
