Everyone has questions about sex, sexuality, and relationships—but for kids in foster care, finding answers from trusted sources can be challenging. That’s why we partnered with UN|HUSHED to create a sexuality education handbook specifically for caregivers and professionals working with youth in the child welfare system.

OUR HANDBOOK

An Introduction to Sexuality Education: A Handbook for Child Welfare Providers provides strategies for sharing trauma-informed, medically accurate facts about sex and sexuality. The handbook equips caregivers and professionals with the tools needed to engage youth in open and age-appropriate conversations.

Now, we’re collaborating with UN|HUSHED to bring the critical lessons in this handbook to a wider audience! Stay tuned for updates on future opportunities to participate in workshops designed to help professionals connect youth in foster care to sex education.
