Healthy Relationships, Boundaries, and Consent
 
Navigating relationships can be hard, especially as a mature woman student. Whether you’re experiencing challenges in a long-term relationship, navigating co-parenting with an ex-partner, or healing from abuse or trauma from past relationships, you’re not alone.
We’re partnering with Queen's University Sexual Violence Prevention & Response Services to host a closed conversation for mature women students and recent graduates about healthy relationships, boundaries, consent, and safety.
This is a student-led discussion. Participants are invited to ask questions, share experiences if you feel comfortable, listen to others, and learn about practical supports and strategies. Topics may include leaving abusive relationships, ongoing abuse or violence from an ex-partner, supporting children who have experienced or witnessed intimate partner abuse, and accessing support services.
You don’t need to share personal experiences to participate. Come ready to learn, connect, and share what feels comfortable for you. Staff will also be available to provide information about support and resources.
Registration is required. Meeting details will be shared when your registration is confirmed.
Date: Tuesday October 20, 2026
Time: 12pm-1:30pm
Location: Online
 
Registration will open at the end of September
