Community Education

We know that reproductive and sexual health can sometimes be difficult to talk about.

We believe it is incredibly important for each of us to know and understand all parts of our bodies, how to look after ourselves and how to stay safe.

The health promotion team at Family Planning Australia are available to visit your school or service (or have you over to one of our clinics), to talk about a range of related topics with groups.

Our staff are skilled in delivering information about these sensitive topics in a way that promotes safety and comfort for the participants. Our team are experts in delivering sessions to people from culturally and linguistically diverse and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander backgrounds, people with disability, and young people (under 30 years).

Topics

We deliver a variety of topics and are able to adapt our content to meet the needs of specific groups. See below for a list of some of the topics we cover:

  • Cervical and breast screening
  • Contraception and family planning
