Community Education

Choices believes that education and understanding lead to informed decisions about sexual and reproductive health for all people. Education sessions offered by CHOICES are based on best practices for sexual health education.

CHOICES believes:

All ages, gender identities, races, cultures, and sexual orientations are equally valuable to our world.
Lack of knowledge and understanding leads to uninformed decisions regarding sexual health.
All people should have access to accurate, comprehensive sexual and reproductive health information.
Abstinence from sexual intercourse is the most effective way to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections.
Children and teens need be given the tools to set goals and achieve them.
Children and teens need be supported in an environment where they feel comfortable discussing topics of sexuality with an informed adult.
Parents need be provided with the necessary tools to educate their children about sexual and reproductive health.
Parents need be involved in the education of their children.

Community Conversations

Join us once a month at CHOICES for conversations on a variety of topics related to achieving your optimal sexual and reproductive health. All sessions are free and open to the public, and are held on Thursdays (check specific sessions for times). To register for any or all sessions, send an email to volunteers@memphischoices.org.
