Healthy Development

Sexual Health

Youth 12+

Youth need reliable supports and resources to help them make informed decisions about sexuality issues.

The Department of Health and Wellness consulted with youth, experts in the field of sexual health, parents, teachers and others to develop the Sex? - A Healthy Sexuality Resource to help youth make healthy choices about their sexual health. This resource is intended for distribution to Grade 7 students in the province.
