We enthusiastically teach people of all backgrounds, ages, religions, occupations, sexual orientations, gender identities, and abilities. Contact us to discuss our predesigned programs or to create a custom lesson.

Planned Parenthood offers programs on a variety of topics and can tailor the training and content to fit your needs. Request a presentation from one of our educators using the form below.

Education topics can be presented as standalone single subjects or as part of a healthy sexuality series. We recommend a series in order to obtain the full benefit of our educational programs. Our programs can be tailored to meet the needs of your group or organization

We teach on site in a variety of settings including: Schools, workplaces, community based organizations, religious institutions, juvenile justice facilities, adult incarceration facilities, substance abuse treatment centers, and agencies for persons with physical or mental disabilities, and in special locations upon request.

The Sunnen Family Library offers parents, students, educators and medical professionals the most extensive collection of sexuality education resources in the St. Louis metropolitan area.

Besides our sex education programs, the Education Division at Planned Parenthood also has special programs designed for advocacy training and professional development. 

Teen Advocates for Sexual Health (TASH) is a group of teens (grades 9-12) representing diverse backgrounds from the St. Louis area. With TASH, teens learn about sexual health, sexuality and how to be advocates in their communities.
