Our two-part presentation
Sexual education is imperative to forming informed health choices and is a key means of STD and HIV prevention, for individuals and for public health. Each presentation pairs a discussion led by our Sexual Health Educator with a talk from a Shanti Ambassador.
Our Ambassadors are individuals living with HIV/AIDS who share their personal experiences and offer a unique perspective on what daily life is really like. These testimonies give a face to the disease and break down the stigma and prejudice surrounding HIV/AIDS.
Bring it to your school
Our presentations are free to Orange County high schools and colleges, and they're built to support the California Healthy Youth Act (AB-329). We work with your schedule and tailor the session to your students, whether that's a single class period or a full assembly.
Educators and administrators can reach out to schedule a presentation or ask questions about what we cover. Tell us your grade level and the time you have available, and we'll handle the rest.
