What Makes Our Sex Ed Stand Out

• We know that one size does not fit all. We tailor each program for each campus, based on an in-depth questionnaire and conversations with organizers about their goals and the campus culture.
• Our speakers co-present in pairs, allowing more than one gender perspective to be incorporated into the presentation, something that's particularly valuable for a topic like sex.
• We're inclusive. All of our programs are inclusive of students of all sexual orientations and gender identities (we teach programs specifically on LGBTQ issues, too). We design our programs to
  

  Many students say getting answers to their sex questions is their favorite part -- they get honest answers to the things they really want to know, plus a sneak peek into what their friends and peers are wondering about. Here, students at the University of Alaska - Anchorage write down their questions.
  be appropriate for students who are already sexually active, as well as those who are postponing sexual activity.
• We're honest and knowledgeable. All our presenters have backgrounds in the field of human sexuality. Our collective experience counseling sexual assault survivors, training peer educators, running support groups, answering hotline calls, counseling clients at risk for HIV, facilitating coming out groups for LGBTQ people, and answering thousands of student sex questions means that what we teach is based on real-world situations.
• We're lively, interactive, and creative. You'll never see our speakers behind a podium, but you can expect props, funny projected images, and interactive activities in all our programs.
• We think laughter is important (at appropriate times). We know that being well-informed about sex reduces students' risks of STIs, HIV, unplanned pregnancy, and sexual assault. But that doesn't mean our teaching relies on scare tactics or dry speeches. We're serious about serious topics, but we find plenty of appropriate times for humor!

All of our programs are appropriate for diverse audiences of all genders and sexual orientations.
