You’re invited!

Your kids are ready to talk. Are you?
Research shows that teens look first to their parents’ guidance when it comes to making decisions about sex, but many parents feel uncomfortable or unprepared to have this conversation.

If you are ready to have the conversation but are struggling with what to say and when to say it, the “Ready to Talk” workshop is for you. This workshop was developed by the Parents Speak Up National Campaign to provide parents of teens and pre-teens with ideas, tips, and interactive exercises to help them feel comfortable and confident to talk to their kids.

Topics covered include:

  • Why your kids really want and need to talk to you.
  • The common reasons parents don’t talk to their kids about sex.
  • How to overcome your anxieties about talking.
  • Practical tips on how to talk to your teen.
  • Where to go for additional information.
