Step into The School of Sexuality Project, where we wholeheartedly believe that Access to Comprehensive Sex Education Is Every Individual's Right!
Our Mission:
Our mission is to destigmatize and re-humanize sex education through the power of humor and storytelling while empowering students with the knowledge they require to become educators themselves, fostering a community of shared learning.
Our VISION:
We aspire to a world where sex education acts as a powerful force for empathy, uniting individuals and fostering a more compassionate and connected world.
THE NEED:
The reduced availability of comprehensive sex education for adolescents is due to increased politicization, misinformation, and fear surrounding sex education. Many schools, especially high schools, cover only half of the recommended topics, mainly due to educators lacking confidence in teaching the subject. Students often find sex education overly biological, technical, and irrelevant, as outdated programs fail to connect with real-life experiences.
OUR Approach
We firmly believe that sex education should be more than just facts and figures – it should vividly reflect the human experience. Our goal is to keep it relevant and make it relatable, ensuring our students can connect with the information on a deeply personal level. We achieve this through two innovative approaches: humor, play, and creativity – three elements often overlooked in sex education and intersectional storytelling; providing a platform for marginalized voices that are often unheard, fostering empathy and creating profound meaning.
OUR METHOD
Every individual's perspective and voice hold the transformative potential to impact their community. Our "teach-the-teacher" approach empowers individuals with the tools to share valuable insights with their communities, setting off a chain reaction of positive change.
In our programs, every student ultimately evolves into a teacher.
Empowering Education: Through our interconnected initiatives, we focus on increasing resource flow in three educational areas
Comprehensive Curriculum and teacher training:
Our comprehensive sex education curriculum includes engaging video lectures, hands-on activities, and state-specific teacher guides, ensuring accessibility for all. Equipping educators with the necessary tools will pave the way for informed discussions on important topics.
Inclusive Literature:
We are proud to publish educational books written by LGBTQ+ and BIPOC authors, targeted towards young people and parents. These resources promote representation, inclusivity, and understanding in sex education literature.
Parent Educator Ambassadors:
Our Parent Educator Ambassador Program empowers teenagers to lead educational workshops for adults, fostering intergenerational conversations on identity, sexuality, body, and expression. We break down barriers and build bridges by promoting understanding within families and communities.
Stories That Connect:
We understand the power of storytelling and real-life experiences. Through our initiatives, we aim to connect with our target audience on a personal level, building empathy and understanding for a more inclusive society.
