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.
What People have said about THE UN|HUSHED TRAINING:
The most useful part was realizing that you don't have to say everything perfectly when you begin a conversation with a youth.
- Participant
In foster care, sex is always a negative. The strength of the program was to show that sex is normal and healthy.
