Welcome to Gen 1 in 5 Inc.
Creating Safe Spaces in People and Places
At Gen 1 in 5, we believe change starts with awareness and grows through connection. We’re a community-driven nonprofit empowering youth, educators, and leaders to build safer, more compassionate environments. Through real conversations, consent education, and safe space training, we’re rewriting the story for the next generation with empathy and action.
About Us
Who We Are and
Why We Care
Gen 1 in 5 Inc. was founded by two forensic registered nurses who witnessed firsthand how cycles of harm continue when communities lack awareness, education, and safe spaces.
We are here to change that.
Our organization empowers youth and community leaders to understand boundaries, build emotional intelligence, and create environments rooted in respect and empathy.
Every program we offer, from consent education to safe space training, strengthens individuals, families, and communities from within.
Safety is not a privilege. It is the foundation for growth, healing, and change. Together we are building a world where everyone can grow, heal, and thrive.
Change begins when awareness meets action and compassion becomes culture.

Our Causes
What We Stand For
Mental Health Awareness
We promote open conversations about emotional wellness and self-care. By normalizing mental health education, we help youth and adults recognize their worth and seek support without shame.
Domestic Violence Prevention
Through workshops and outreach, we teach healthy relationship skills, boundary-setting, and conflict resolution. Our goal is to break the silence, stop the cycle, and empower survivors to heal.
Consent Education
Our Consent B.A.E. model — Boundaries, Ask, Empathy — helps individuals understand respect and accountability. We believe consent is not just a topic, but a lifestyle that builds safer connections.
