Parents, Friends and Families Workshop

Talking with your loved ones about friendships, relationships and intimacy can be tricky. As parents, family and friends, we often worry that talking about it can be risky.

This workshop will help you feel more confident to have these conversations. It will give you ideas about the best topics to cover, tips for talking and opportunities to practice so you can support your loved one to develop knowledge and skills that give them power and control to keep themselves safe, while also having a fulfilling life.

The four modules we’ll cover are:

  • Introduction and Setting The Stage
  • Human Sexual Development
  • Tips For Talking and Teachable Moments
  • Responding to Behaviours
