Stellar Sexual Health Education (by RISE: Healthy for Life) engages participants in an expansive exploration of their inner and outer space. It fundamentally changes the way we do sexuality education. Free of judgment, Stellar dismantles stigma and invites honest, compassionate curiosity about bodies, identities, and relationships.

RISE's programs are interactive and engaging. They are inclusive, affirming, and fact-based. This is not your grandma's sex ed!

Guardians are welcome to reach out to Jess Ox at dre@hvuuc.org with any questions/concerns about the program.
