Workshop Description
This workshop is for people who want to work with children and youth teaching about human sexuality. It will cover the school district protocols needed to become someone who can teach in public schools as well as the state education codes. It will also cover developmentally what is happening for puberty aged youth. It will also give you the skills to make it easier to talk to children about health and growing up.

Not knowing the right words or the right answers;
Being out of it in the eyes of their young people;
Giving too much or too little information; or
Giving information at the wrong time
This workshop will:
Cover the legal issues about teaching children
Review the developmental stages of growing up and how to give age appropriate information
Give you a chance to answer real questions from children all over the Bay Area about puberty, and becoming a teenage. Provide tips on how to answer these question with out bias, shame or sex negative attitudes.
