Description and Goals
Our Whole Lives: Sexuality Education for 8th & 9th grade is part of the faith formation program at Valley Unitarian Universalist Congregation. The program is a 26-week workshop curriculum with the overall goal of creating a positive and comprehensive program that helps participants to gain the knowledge, values, and skills to lead sexually healthy, responsible lives. It supports the "three Rs" of sexuality education: respect, relationships, and responsibility.
Some additional goals of this course are to help young adolescents:


- Affirm and respect themselves as sexual persons (including their bodies, sexual orientation, feelings, etc.) and respect the sexuality of others

- Increase comfort and skills for discussing and negotiating sexuality issues with peers, romantic partners, and people of other generations

- Increase knowledge and skills for avoiding unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections

- Identify and live according to their values.
