WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING

While each student has a different level of comfort and knowledge surrounding sexuality when they begin our programs, a remarkable number exit with increased health literacy and confidence. Here is what students are saying about our programs!

 
I will remember consent is a process and be more open to talk about sex.
— 9th grade student
I feel more comfortable talking about my body. I also feel more normal and I know that I’m not the only one going through these changes.
— 5th/6th grade student
After I took this program I switched from a daily oral contraceptive to a IUD. This has improved the quality of my life, I am never stressed about whether I remembered to take my birth control or not, and I would never have done it without the info provided in Teen Talk!
— 12th grade student
As a girl there sadly come dangers that nobody should face, including myself. I can say ‘no’, I can not be ready, and I shouldn’t have to be pressured into anything.
— 8th grade student
(My favorite part of the course was) learning about everything to be safe in the future.
— 10th grade student, special education
I will remember to recognize my personal values while entering a relationship.
— 9th grade student
After participating in this program I would always speak up if I’m not comfortable with something.
— 7th/8th grade student
I’ll be more considerate of other people’s values.
— 9th grade student
I was already going to wait to have sex until later, but I am absolutely sure of that thought now. I also now know more about how to keep myself protected.
