Wellness Workshop - Sexual Health - Tuesday, April 15 11 a.m.- 1 p.m.



Have you ever wondered how you might have that conversation with your children about sex and sexual health? Have you ever thought... "I don't know if I have all the right information", and just hoped that they would learn about it in school? Parents are often the ones young people look to first when they start to have questions about sex and sexual health. Join the workshop to increase overall communication around sex and sexual health, increase your confidence and abilities related to the topic and give you a greater knowledge of where and how to access resources related to sexual health.

We are excited to host the two-hour workshop of Roots and Wings. The workshop was developed by Colorado Youth Matter, a statewide non-profit focused on improving youth sexual health. The workshop will be facilitated by Mary Jane Cassalia and Lesley Del Rio, who are part of the Children Youth and Families Branch, and a staff member from Colorado Youth Matter. Mary Jane and Lesley work on the Maternal and Child Health priority of improving youth sexual health. A key part of this work is helping parents and other trusted adults have the tools and resources they need related to the topic. 

Please sign up here so we can make sure we have enough materials for everyone.
