This course provides an overview of what's involved and what to consider when teaching sex education and sexuality, with emphasis on how to engage in strong conversations with young people. Participants will learn to help young people normalize deep, meaningful conversations about sex and sexuality while removing the stigma associated with these topics. The course will explore sexuality through a person's lifespan and six aspects of sexuality. The course will expand on how to identify and effectively respond to different types of sex related questions, including values-based questions, as well as how to set up anonymous questions.
