Our Whole Lives is a comprehensive and progressive sex education curriculum that supports participants in making informed and responsible decisions about their sexual health and behavior. It equips participants with accurate, age-appropriate information in six subject areas: human development, relationships, personal skills, sexual behavior, sexual health, and society and culture. Grounded in a holistic view of sexuality, Our Whole Lives not only provides facts about anatomy and human development, but also helps participants clarify their values, build interpersonal skills, and understand the spiritual, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality.
Our hopeful schedule:
We offer OWL classes based on availability of volunteer facilitators, with the intention of offering every child and youth level every other year and adult levels when interest warrants.
- 8th & 9th – Fall 2024-Spring 2025
- K-1st – Fall 2024
- 5th & 6th Grade – Spring 2025
- Older Adult – Fall 2024
Reach out to, Kinsey Shackelford, if you have any questions or are interested in becoming an OWL Facilitator.
