We work within Pueblo City Schools and School District 70 to implement comprehensive sexual health education into schools. We help train and support teachers to implement programs in their classrooms and provide lessons upon request. Current programs being implemented include Draw the Line, Respect the Line and Family Life and Sexual Health (FLASH).
A one to two-hour training to help parents and adults working with youth talk to them about sexual health, drugs, alcohol, and other hard life topics. Askable Adult/Parent Classes help adults learn what type of questions kids will ask, and how to answer them to the best of their ability. Classes are free to the community.
