Boosting Educator's Confidence

In this workshop you will recognize internal biases and explore ways to help reduce that bias to provide the most effective and empowering sexual health education possible. Participants will learn why it is important to use inclusive language in all areas of teaching to help reduce harm and to understand the impact words have on marginalized groups. Workshop participants will empower themselves with knowledge and empathy, to then empower and encourage their students to make the healthiest sexual decisions for themselves. Overall, participants will become more confident in teaching the topic of sexual health, gain skills on how to answer questions about sexual health effectively, creating an inclusive learning environment for all, and empower students to make the healthiest choices for their own sexual health.
