At SMASH workshops, we try to ensure that the entire day contains a strong sexual health theme with as much factual information as possible. We address common myths and misconceptions about sexual health and relationships. Participants learn about different ways that they make decisions, are asked to identify their personal cues so they’re more able to trust their instincts, and can practice ways to make difficult decisions in common sexual health and relationship scenarios that affect many Northern youth. These activities and skills help to arm young men to make the best decisions for themselves when dealing with situations that face most, if not all, teenagers.
