Vancouver Coastal Health - Healthy Relationships and Sexuality Workshops

Resources To Educate Teens About Sexuality And Sexual Health

Vancouver Coastal Health is proud to offer teachers, school counselors, youth workers, and community health nurses this resource to support healthy adolescent development in our communities. The resource was developed in collaboration with high school students during the Parkgate Youth Sexual Health Project.

These resources are designed to support older teens in helping younger teens establish healthy sexual behaviours as the "in" choice. The workshops are meant to provide a safe space for teens to explore some of the broad issues that influence decisions about relationships and sexuality, and to foster healthy attitudes and skills. The educational design of the workshops is intended to provide a structure and activities through which to explore issues more than it is to "teach" students. The workshops are meant to complement the factual education teens receive on the reproductive system, pregnancy, and sexually transmitted infections.
