T.E.A.C.H. is a peer-based youth anti-homophobia/biphobia/transphobia education program. The program trains youth volunteers aged 16 to 25 to facilitate anti-homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, and hetero-cissexism workshops in school and community settings. These workshops encourage youth to engage in conversations about 2SLGBTQIA+ identities and to think critically about issues faced by two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer members of their communities. Volunteers for the T.E.A.C.H. program are asked to co-facilitate these interactive workshops that prepare youth to have conversations that challenge assumptions and stereotypes and empower advocacy to make communities safer and more accepting for everyone.

  • FAQ: What is “unprotected sex”?

    A lot of the time “unprotected sex” usually means when people don’t use condoms and/or any birth control methods. That’s typically how people learn to use it, either in school or media. But really, it depends on what kind of things you’re trying to protect yourself from.
