Let’s Talk:
​A Series of Peer Groups
​for Teens and Pre-Teens

“Will you be back next year?” “Will we have sex ed in high school?”
​“Where can we go with our questions once you leave?”

 These are the questions we receive from students as we bring our courses to schools across the country. Students are asking for more support as they try to confidently navigate their teenage years with the skills and knowledge necessary to make educated decisions.

Without accurate information from trusted adults, the majority of young people in the United States today are receiving their only sex ed from porn. We must be proactive and provide young people with the information they need.

This series of online peer groups will provide your child with this community and space. To support pre-teens and teens, we are launching three peer groups:
  • Let’s Talk about Love, Relationships, and Consent
  • Let’s Talk about Sex and DecisionMaking
  • Let’s Talk about Digital Health and the Psychology of Media Manipulation

You may sign your child up for one, two, or all three of these peer groups.

Each group consists of three one-hour sessions. Students will meet with peers of similar ages:10-13 year-olds or 14-16 year-olds.

These groups will be interactive, with reflection, stories, and small group discussions. Each series will dive deep into the topic with small peer cohorts, expert facilitators, and the safe, open space most young people are craving.
