FAQs
Want to get sexual health info from a person, not a website?
Peer educators are here for you! They can give youth 13-29 information and support (but not formal counselling) on sexual and reproductive health issues in the clinic. We are here to give you information that is sex-positive, inclusive, non-judgmental and pro-choice. Our goal is to empower you to make informed decisions about your health, and to give you time and space to ask questions and talk about your feelings the way you might not be able to do in a doctor’s appointment.
