Families Talk: Sexual Health

Welcome to LiFT!

Join Health Mentors Chander & Kurt at Family Tree Clinic for an engaging day focused on families talking about sexuality openly and honestly.

Linking Families and Teens (LiFT) is a family connection program for youth ages 13-19 and their supportive adult(s).

This program is designed to improve sexual health outcomes for teens by enhancing key protective factors such as:

• Increase the frequency and quality of communication about sexuality between teens and their supportive adults
• Enhance the relationship between teens and their supportive adults
• Increase teen confidence to prevent unplanned pregnancy
• Increase supportive adults’ comfort with their youth receiving sexual health services.
• Decrease social stigma and shame
