The next series runs every Thursday in June: 1, 8, 15, 22, 29.

This small-group workshop is designed to support survivors of sexual assault and individuals who struggle with feelings of shame, guilt, or fear around sex. It aims to create a safe and supportive environment where participants can explore their sexuality, learn coping skills, and connect with others who have had similar experiences. 

Using discussion, interactive exercises, creative activities, and guided meditations, Sexually Speaking explores:

• consent

• boundaries

• communication

• pleasure

• sexual health

• intimacy

• self-care

We will also work on building self-esteem and self-confidence to help participants feel empowered in their sexual experiences. 

While the topic of sexual assault is a serious and important issue, our class is also designed to be fun and enjoyable. We believe that laughter and humor can be a powerful tool for healing and growth. Therefore, we encourage a relaxed and playful atmosphere where participants can feel comfortable expressing themselves and enjoying the process. 

This series registration fee operates on a sliding scale. Choose $50 (Reduced), $75 (Standard), or $100 (Supporter) based on your budget.

Due to our small class sizes, you must pre-register to reserve your spot. If the registration fee is a barrier to your attendance, please email us.

We have 8 spots left.

Does talking about sex with your kids intimidate or even scare you? Are you concerned about the influence of social media and popular culture on your young peoples' attitudes and values around sex? In this engaging and supportive space, we'll discuss 

• how and why to become an "askable adult"

• the importance of knowing and sharing your own values around sexuality with your young people

• resources to help you become more prepared to talk about sex with your young people

Talking about sex with kids doesn't come naturally to many of us, but the benefits of it are overwhelming. Regardless of the age of the young people in your life, this brief workshop will provide guidance and support for all parenting adults.

Your young person’s health and well-being—both physical and emotional—is too important to make “The Talk” a onetime event. Community educators Katie Gardner and Leslie Montgomery will give you the tools to create a culture of open communication in your home.

In-person space is limited so you must pre-register to reserve your spot.

In-person registration fee: $20 (If this is a barrier to your attendance, please reach out to us!) Includes workbook.

Family discounts for co-parents of the same children: $30 for two parents, $45 for three parents, $65 for four parents
