INTERMEDIATE
WORKSHOPS
Ages 8-13
These workshops focus on preparing young people for their changing bodies and relationships. Kids cannot navigate this tumultuous time without the support of knowledgeable, trusted adults. We can help kids to understand difficult concepts, such as consent, the importance of hygiene, and healthy relationships. With these tools, kids can successfully transition to the high school years.
