How to Teach Kids and Teens About Sexual Ethics: Parent Education
In this presentation, Natasha shares frameworks and strategies that can help parents open up the lines of communication about sexuality and sexual ethics and keep them open. Topics include how to have age and developmentally appropriate conversations with your child about consent, puberty, relationships, sexuality, and decision-making. Natasha also addresses why it's critical to start these conversations sooner than later.

Cultivating Critical Consent Literacy
In this popular presentation, Natasha addresses not only how to co-create consent culture in a classroom, grade, or a school, but also how to complicate issues of consent so that students can become more aware of the many factors that impede or enhance honest communication. Utilizing a framework that acknowledges lines of power and difference as well as interactive exercises, Natasha guides students towards increased empathy for self and others.

Media and Porn Literacy
In an age where young people have easy access to information about sex through the internet, it's that much more important for them to develop media literacy skills and an ethical compass, so they can better navigate the narratives and scripts they intentionally or unintentionally encounter online.
In this presentation, students will learn how their ideas, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors regarding gender roles, sexuality, and relationships can be shaped by media. They will also learn critical tools to unpack the narratives and images they encounter and be encouraged to become more discerning citizens in the mediascape and beyond.
Our time-tested Consent and Healthy Relationships Assembly is a theatrical performance of carefully curated stories based on high school students’ real accounts of sexual harm. The assembly fosters empathy and critical thinking by offering school audiences a variety of perspectives from students who have navigated consent—from victim to perpetrator to bystander. The assembly promotes a culture of inclusion by exploring various kinds of relationships and inspires students to embrace the values of affirmative consent and just relationships.

Sexual Harassment
While most kids and teens have heard of the term "sexual harassment", they seldom know what it means and what it actually looks like and sounds like. Without understanding what sexual harassment is, it becomes difficult for young people to name their own experiences, identify and/or stop their own behaviors, or get the support they need. In this two-part class, students learn about various types of sexual harassment and what they can do to prevent it from happening in their community.
Relationship Literacy
Though many students don’t start dating in middle school—or even high school—they're already developing ideas about dating, relationships, and gender roles. This fun and interactive presentation supports students in discerning shared and competing values and beliefs about relationships--and discovering more about themselves and one another. In the second part, we explore healthy and unhealthy dynamics in relationships, and students learn about their individual deal makers and deal breakers.
Sepectations
This presentation helps prepare students to better navigate the sexual landscape in college and beyond. Utilizing student voices and perspectives from across the country, we highlight the importance of students not only identifying their sexual expectations, hopes, and goals, but also communicating them. When encouraged to discern, articulate, and listen for sexual values and goals, students can gain the critical tools they need to foster safety, agency, and ethical sexual citizenship.
