Our programs encourage students to talk openly about sex and relationships, and include the voices of students of numerous identities and experiences. We promote healthy relationships using an affirmative, enthusiastic consent model, by focusing on pleasure and sex-positivity, and encouraging communication and dialogue between partners.
