F.L.A.S.H. Training of Educators 

Family LIfe And Sexual Health (F.LA.S.H.) is a widely used, school-based comprehensive sexual health education curriculum.  This curriculum is available for elementary, middle school, high school and special education classrooms.  F.L.A.S.H. provides information on sexual health topics including: abstience, birth control, STD and HIV prevention, sexual orientation, sexual identity, sexual violence prevention, condoms, decision making, reproductive system and healthy relationships.

F.L.A.S.H. is aligned with and meets all eight standards of the National Health Standards for Sexual Health (HECAT) and the National Sexuality Education Standards, and will meet requirements for the Human Growth and Development Mandate.  Each lesson contains assessments based on meeting the above standards.

This F.L.A.S.H. Training of Educators  will equip facilitators to implement the F.L.A.S.H. curriculum to middle school and high school youth. Training will include: overview of the curriculum, key concepts, pedagogy strategy and teach-back exercises.
