So what is Stellar Sex Ed?

Stellar Sex Ed is a series of curricula by RISE: Healthy for Life, which started out as the sexual health outreach of Holston Valley UU Church. Stellar engages participants in an expansive exploration of their inner and outer space. It fundamentally changes the way we do sexuality education. Free of judgment, Stellar Sex Ed dismantles stigma and invites honest, compassionate curiosity about bodies, identities, and relationships.

Youth will learn about the power of language, anatomy, puberty, body image, gender, attraction, bias, consent, relationship dynamics, porn (it is adult entertainment, not youth education), media literacy, pregnancy and pregnancy outcomes, STIs, and prevention.

RISE's programs are interactive and engaging. They are inclusive, affirming, and fact-based. This is not your grandma's sex ed.

Guardians are welcome to reach out to cindi@riseHFL.org or to call Cindi during work hours at 423-250-3046 with any questions/concerns about the program.
