Sexuality Education for Adults

At First UU, we provide a series of comprehensive sexuality education courses called Our Whole Lives (OWL).  OWL helps participants make informed and responsible decisions about their sexual health and behavior. 

Grounded in a holistic view of sexuality, Our Whole Lives not only provides facts about anatomy and human development, but also helps participants clarify their values, build interpersonal skills, and understand the spiritual, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality. 

Using values, communication skills, and spirituality as starting points, this program explores sexuality issues for adults of all ages, from young adulthood through old age. It gives participants an understanding of healthy sexual relationships, affirms diversity, and helps participants accept and affirm their own sexuality throughout their lives. 

Leaders of the courses are trained and follow a faith-wide curriculum. More information on the curriculum is available at the Unitarian Universalist Association’s website.
