Teens & Sexual Health
Parents are the first and most important sexual health educators of their teens! Parents want to give their teens knowledge and guidance to help them become responsible and secure adults. When it comes to the topic of sex, parents may feel embarrassed or uncomfortable.
The following resources have been developed to help parents talk openly with their teens about the important topic of sexual health. These parent resources are also available on the Newfoundland and Labrador Eastern School District (NLESD) website. In addition, resources have been developed for teachers to align with the health curriculum.
