Youth Facilitated Stakeholder Dialogue Logo
  • Sexual Health Forum For Youth

  • WV FREE is inviting West Virginia youth (ages 14-24) to join us for a virtual dialogue and educational session that will focus on sexual health.

    Sexual Health is defined as "a state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality." Sexual health is important for everyone, not just people who are having or thinking about having sex. During this session, we will have an honest, open, judgement-free conversation about what sexual health means to you, what you have heard about it from friends, family, or in the media, and what factors influence the sexual health of young people like you. During the forum, you will be asked about your reactions to, or knowledge of, specific sexual health information. You will not be expected to share personal health information if you do not want to. Any information that is shared will be anonymously documented and not associated with identifying information in any way.

    Information and feedback collected during this forum will be used to improve WV FREE's sex education programs for young people, and to help us understand how best to reach youth with this vital information. All participants in the forum will receive a $30 gift card as compensation, as well as access to a variety of free sexual health resources and materials. You are also eligibile to recieve additional compensation for refferals. 

     Eligibility Requirements - In order to participate, you must:

    • Be between the ages of 14 and 24
    • Be a current resident of West Virginia (individuals attending school or on a temporary work assignment out of state, but whose permanent address is in WV, may also attend)
    • Have access to a computer, tablet or smartphone with reliable internet access and videocall capabilities for the duration of the session
    • Be able to attend for the entire session

    Gift cards will be distributed after the forum is over, and only to those who are in attendance for the full length of the session.
