What YIPA members are saying
I appreciated the mix of information, and suggestions for how to teach that information to youth!
Great flow from the trainer. Felt accessible/that there was something to learn for people actively teaching sex education and those who work with youth as a whole.
Logan was a dynamic presenter and educator, they used a lot of great examples and gave a lot of very helpful data!
