The statistics about unhealthy relationships aren’t always given enough attention, and the nonprofit DoSomething is working to change that with their new 1 in 3 of Us campaign. Just by being a part of this campaign to raise awareness about what constitutes an unhealthy relationship, you could win a $5,000 scholarship.
When you sign up for the campaign, DoSomething will send you facts about unhealthy and abusive relationships along with three “Spot the Signs” guides about how you can tell if your friends are in unsafe relationships. They’ll also send you three metallic tattoo bracelets like the ones above, and you’re encouraged to Instagram a photo of yourself and two friends wearing the bracelets to bring light to the 1 in 3 statistic.
“The line between an affectionate relationship and a controlling, dangerous one can be super blurry,” DoSomething writes on its campaign page. “By spotting and acting on the signs of an abusive partners, you can promote healthy relationship behavior to keep you and your friends safe.”
In addition to learning about unhealthy relationships, just by signing up to be a part of this campaign, you could win a $5,000 scholarship. You can sign up to be a part of this campaign by visiting DoSomething’s website or by texting RESPECT to 38383.
