Yes, PLEASE! Healthy Sexuality Workshops
In Yes, PLEASE!, the curriculum incorporates active discussion, models inclusive best practices, and introduces youth (ages 8-24) to a wide variety of local and national resources. By the end of the series, participants report feeling more in control over their sexual health and more confident to explore their identities.

Yes PLEASE! Grades 7 -12 Session Descriptions
How does it work?
Each session has a video-based guided lesson intended to be used in tandem with the corresponding Yes, PLEASE! Session workbook. Once students have completed the guided lesson and submitted their web-based assessment tools, a live discussion group via a preferred video-chatting platform is scheduled within 5 days of posting the guided lesson. This discussion group is designed to connect directly with youth and ensure content is fully integrated and understood in its full context.
