Young people need adults who are approachable, non-judgmental, and open to questions. This training prepares participants to become "askable" by reviewing data and trends in adolescent sexual health, basics of puberty and adolescent development, boundaries and self-disclosures, and how to answer challenging questions. Participants will also consider how to create the safest learning environment possible for all young people.
