Inclusive s*x education helps young people feel seen, valued, and supported — reducing shame and dysphoria while boosting confidence and emotional well-being. Mental health is part of s*xual health.
❤️NOHD and NOARHP jointly received a SIECUS grant to support s*x education programming for youth. This partnership directly responds to rising rates of STIs and HIV among youth in Orleans Parish. Research consistently shows that comprehensive, medically accurate s*x education equips young people with the knowledge and skills needed to prevent these outcomes and promote healthy futures. ❤️
