Sexual Health, Advocacy & Relationship Education

Sexual Health Education 

The Sexual Health, Advocacy, and Relationship Education program aids students in exploring their relationship with their own sexuality and sexual health by providing inclusive, accessible resources with an emphasis on safety, autonomy, comfort, and trauma-competency. 

Sexual Health is defined by the World Health Organization as “…a state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality; it is not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or infirmity. Sexual health requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, discrimination and violence. For sexual health to be attained and maintained, the sexual rights of all persons must be respected, protected and fulfilled.”

Sexual health and well-being is every person's right. We hope that the resources on this page will help you find what you need to care for yourself and your partners.
