Our Whole Lives (OWL) for 7th – 9th Grade
During certain years, our RE program will offer Our Whole Lives sessions. Liberal religious sexuality education gives children, youth, and adults a safe forum in which to make meaning of their lives. Participants learn to feel positive about themselves and their sexuality while they clarify their values, apply their values to their experiences, and gain knowledge about their bodies, feelings, and behaviors.
Our Whole Lives takes a holistic view of sexuality. It provides accurate, age appropriate information while helping people clarify their values, build interpersonal skills, and understand the spiritual, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality.
Our Whole Lives values:
- Self-Worth
- Sexual Health
- Responsibility
- Justice and Inclusivity
