Honest, accurate information about sexuality changes lives. It dismantles stereotypes and assumptions, builds self-acceptance and self-esteem, fosters healthy relationships, improves decision making, and has the potential to save lives. For these reasons and more, we are proud to offer Our Whole Lives (OWL), a comprehensive, lifespan sexuality education curricula for use in both secular settings and faith communities.
Interactive workshops and activities engage participants, while Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) training and step-by-step instructions for program planners and facilitators help ensure success. The curricula speak to participants’ needs by age group.

- Guiding values and principles
- Activities that help participants clarify values and improve decision-making skills
