Teen STAR is exactly what you need!
This pedagogy developed in the United States by Dr. Hanna Klaus, and now distributed throughout the world, awakens the critical sense of young people, allows them to make free and responsible choices and gives them the keys to build their adult life.
Teenagers / young people will find a space to talk in a benevolent and non-taboo setting to talk about all these subjects. They will be able to discuss their concerns, ask their questions and develop a reflection by dialoguing with other young people and a trained adult. By respecting each person's construction time, they will be led to marvel at the beauty of their body and all its changes, to discuss and discover the richness of boy-girl relationships in friendship and then in love. They will gain self-confidence to approach adulthood while feeling good in their body and mind.

You notice that young people get information mainly on the internet and social networks and that does not satisfy you. You notice that, for lack of a constructive dialogue without taboos with adults, affectivity and sexuality become places of injury, sadness, even violence. You want better for young people!
Teen STAR may be right for your school and/or organization if...
- You are faced with questions / behaviors of your young people in full puberty or at the dawn of their adult life in a hyper-sexualized society
- You don't always know when or how to bring up these topics with them
- You think that emotional and sexual education should not be done through the internet, especially through pornography
- You think that the role of educator is to help young people to unify all the dimensions of their person: physical, psychological, intellectual, relational and spiritual
- You want to give them the keys so that they can make their own choices freely and with respect for themselves and others, in the areas of affectivity and sexuality
