Sexual Health Facilitators’ Guide to Responding to Youth’s Questions About Sex

2023

Facilitators of sexual health education programs may face a dilemma when they aren’t sure about how to respond to a youth’s question. This may be because they don’t know the answer, aren’t sure whether they should answer a question about their personal experience, or are being asked for their opinion.

Facilitators can use this tip sheet, available in both English and Spanish, to help craft responses that are factual, honest, and non-judgmental.

This tip sheet highlights three steps to follow when responding to youth’s questions about sex that are covered in El Camino’s Training of Facilitators. While this resource is designed with El Camino facilitators in mind, these steps are applicable to anyone who finds themselves on the receiving end of a young person’s sex- or sexuality-related question.
