Beyond Halal and Haram: Muslims, Sex, and Relationships Safety Card

The goal of this safety card is to be both a survivor-centered resource and a useful conversation starter for health care providers, counselors, social workers, mentors, or other adults working with high-school and college-aged Muslim youth who are doing universal education around healthy relationships and assessing for violence. The card provides information on healthy relationships and sex, guidance and resources for support, how to help a friend, and cultural and religious factors that play into decision-making.

This card can be used by health care providers and health center staff as a conversation starter with all patients on the connections between health and relationships. It can also be used in community-based organizations, counseling centers, and religious institutions to augment their prevention education and trauma-informed response efforts.

This safety card was created through a collaboration between Futures Without Violence, HEART Women & Girls, and Advocates for Youth.
