ConnectEd Parents

Hi Parents & Caregivers!

We know parenting isn’t always easy — especially when it comes to talking about friendships, dating, and boundaries. That’s why we created ConnectED Parents - free, research-backed initiative that helps parents guide children aged 6–20 toward healthy, respectful relationships.

Starting in September 2025, those who sign up will get 2–3 short, practical texts each week — tips, tools, and ideas you can use in real life. Over 6 months, you’ll receive around 70 messages to help you:
 ✔️ Start open, honest conversations about relationships and dating
 ✔️ Boost your confidence as a parent in connecting with your child
 ✔️ Prevent dating violence before it starts

This initiative is led by Shift, a research hub at the University of Calgary’s Faculty of Social Work. And there's more — you can also provide your feedback to help us continue to improve the initiative for other families.

Have questions? We’re happy to chat — just email Lianne Lee at LiLee@ucalgary.ca, and stay up-to-date with us on social media.

Let’s help the next generation build safe, strong relationships - it all starts with you!

Warmly,
