Parents and guardians play an essential role in ensuring their children have healthy lives.

Our programs designed for parents, caregivers, and trusted adults empower adults to talk about sex and relationships with their teens and prepare them to navigate healthcare. We offer several programs to support parents and guardians. We offer virtual or in-person programs for your parent group, and we can coordinate it with implementation of our youth programs, like Big Decisions and On My Way.
