Founded in 2010 to honor the memory of Yeardley Love, One Love’s mission is to end relationship abuse by educating young people about healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors, how to #LOVEBETTER and empowering them to be leaders driving change in their communities. When she was killed by her ex-boyfriend, Yeardley's friends and family were shocked to learn that she had been in an abusive relationship. Today, One Love exists for one reason: Yeardley was killed and her death may have been prevented if those around her, including herself, recognized the signs and knew how to intervene. One Love works to ensure that everyone has the information about healthy and unhealthy behaviors that Yeardley and those around her did not. Most people do not realize how widespread this issue is. In fact, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience relationship abuse at some point in their lives.1 We know that by educating young people at a young age about the differences between healthy and unhealthy relationships, as well as the early warning signs of unhealthy relationships, we can be a part of the solution that saves lives.

Their Mission:

Love is the most important thing in our lives, yet we are taught very little about it. One Love is on a mission to change that. We educate young people about healthy and unhealthy relationships, empowering them to identify and avoid abuse and learn how to love better.

The Sun & her Moon Collective Presents:

One Love & Escalation Workshops

At The Sun & her Moon our lightworkers are trained by the One Love Foundation and are able to facilitate workshops in our community, raise awareness and host events for fundraising. Unhealthy relationship behavior often goes unrecognized, because we don’t have the tools to identify it. One Love’s workshops include captivating films and peer-to-peer discussions that open eyes and start life-changing conversations.

* TRIGGER WARNING *

"The film that you are about to watch depicts examples of relationship abuse. This is a very heavy film and can be difficult to watch, even if you have not been in a similar situation. This film portrays just one example of relationship abuse, an issue that is prevalent amongst all types of relationships, no matter the gender, sexuality, class, ability, religion or race.

Feeling trapped in the Love Labyrinth is a very real and very frightening symptom of relationship abuse. One way out is awareness. Understanding the gray area between love and control allows you and the people you care about to recognize relationship abuse before it escalates.
