Shafia Zaloom with Peggy Orenstein - Sex, Teens, and Everything in Between

Presented by Book Passage at Book Passage, Corte Madera

Many American teens are steeped in a culture that sends unsettling messages about sex, through everything from politics to music to the normalization of porn.

In today's environment, it's crucial that teens be able to ask hard questions about how to take care of themselves, make decisions that reflect their values, and stay safe.

In Sex, Teens, and Everything in Between, veteran teen sex educator and mother of three Shafia Zaloom helps you discuss a wide variety of sex-related topics with your teen.

She consults with other schools to create programs and leads teachers to develop and present curricula on a variety of topics.
