More Than…“The Talk” Mondays
For adults with children of any age who want to have more than “The Talk”
We are offering a variety of 75 minute online parent and caregiver classes.
We support parents and caregivers in their role as the primary sexual health educators for their children. Our programs are designed to:
* Help you identify and express your values regarding healthy sexuality * Understand sexuality topics that are critical at each developmental stage * Increase your comfort with discussing gender diversity and sexual orientation * Learn the facts about sexual health dangers impacting children and youth * Express the important messages about sexuality you want to give your children *
Sessions are $20 per family. $5 off for early bird registration.
We have not scheduled sessions for 25-26 school year. Please get in touch with us if you would like to organize a session for your group.
