Relationship Education That Fits Right Into Your Extension Work

As an Extension professional, you’re already in the business of bringing research-based programming to the young people who need it most — in classrooms, after-school settings, county offices, and everywhere in between. Dibble Institute materials were made for educators like you.

This toolkit is your starting point for bringing relationship education into your Extension programming. Whether you work with children in a 4-H setting, teens exploring healthy relationships, or young adults building their futures, Dibble offers a curriculum to fit your audience. Our programs are evidence-based, easy to facilitate, and designed to complement the work Extension professionals are already doing.

Here you’ll find program overviews, webinars, case studies, evaluations by Extension professionals, and everything you need to get started — all in one place.
