Power & Control Wheel

Free Spokane Teen Dating Abuse Prevention Resources for Youth, Parents, Educators, and Community Organizations

Power & Control Wheel

Abuse is often subtle—especially in teen relationships. The Power & Control Wheel helps illustrate the many ways someone can use manipulation, isolation, or intimidation to gain control over their partner.

This visual guide breaks down types of abuse that go beyond physical violence, including:

  • Emotional and psychological abuse

  • Digital and social media abuse

  • Peer pressure and jealousy

  • Intimidation and guilt tactics

It’s a powerful teaching tool for both youth and adults.
