  • Benchmarks for Effective Comprehensive Sexual Health Education

    SIECCAN is excited to announce that we are beginning to develop the Benchmarks for Effective Comprehensive Sexual Health Education. The Benchmarks will provide policy and program decision-makers and educators with a consistent, evidenced-based tool to develop, implement, and evaluate sexual health education programs/curricula that address the age/grade-specific sexual health education needs of the diverse youth population in Canada. One of the first project steps is to conduct an online consultation survey of educators and other professionals involved in sexual health education/promotion in Canada to identify age/grade related content priorities for comprehensive sexual health education.
