'Yarning About' resources
The 'Yarning About' resources series has been developed for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, Aboriginal Health Workers, clinical, education and welfare professionals.
The 'Yarning About' series provides easy-to-read messages about:
- Puberty
- Parenting
- Sexually transmissible infections
- Contraception
- Safe sex
- Sexual health
- Cervical screening
- Pregnancy options
The resources use a conversational approach by presenting five community members who share their concerns and also their knowledge of RSH issues.
The characters of Aunty Lee, Uncle Peter and young people Charles, Keewa and Janayah were designed by an Aboriginal artist to promote healthy choices about key RSH topics.
