Our Programs
The Academy for Adolescent Health, Inc. provides evidence-based programs that are teen/youth driven and tested, interactive, and culturally current. Cutting edge topics like sexting and the implications of social networking are addressed.
Sample Programs Include:
INSIDE OUT
Inside Out: Your Body is Amazing Inside and Out and Belongs Only to You is an innovative approach to child abuse prevention that is body-positive, affirming, and empowering. Replacing programs that place the burden on prevention on the child, the diverse children in this interactive coloring book teach seven “big” lessons to their peers.
The Nonnie series
The Nonnie Series addresses challenging topics for children and adults with kindness and respect. This is a series that includes Nonnie Talks About Consent, Nonnie Talks About Gender, Nonnie Talks About Puberty, Nonnie Talks About Death, Nonnie Talks About Race, and Nonnie Talks About Birth.
me too
Me TooTM: Real Talk about Sexuality for People of ALL Abilities. Me Too2 focuses on young people, from middle to high school level. It’s possible to use this manual without the original Me TooTM, but over 45 learning activities in the first manual are referenced in this one. While Me Too2 may be useful as a stand alone resource (there are 22 new activities in Me Too2), I need to share its intent.
real talk for real teens
Real Talk for Real Teens #Communicate is an innovative resource for adults seeking to connect with young people. The 60 illustrations (created by Alice Burroughs) and scenarios in this book are meant to inspire conversation, encourage connection, and empower adults with the skills they need to really reach young people.
