Faith-Based Family Life Education Curricula
These curricula include two designed to work with adults with a participant handbook, one for a Christian audience and one for a Muslim one. In addition, a third tool is for working with youth directly, from a Christian perspective. The manuals encourage open discussion about sexuality, reproductive health, and HIV in the context of faith communities. They are not designed to promote religion.

These manuals contain six workshops and a participant handbook designed for a Christian or Muslim audience, respectively. Participants practice communication skills and learn factual information as linked to religious teachings and appropriate Bible and Quran verses. The manuals encourage open discussion about sexuality, reproductive health, and HIV in the context of faith communities. They provide a forum to clarify Christian and Muslim values around these topics, while providing accurate technical information. They are not designed to promote religion.

The 20 sections in this handbook are grouped according to the first five workshop topics. This handbook is an easy-to-use resource, providing basic information and guidance without a formal training curriculum.
This manual contains 12 short workshops designed for working with youth in a Christian faith community. The manual provides basic information on communication, development, sexuality, reproductive health, HIV, and related issues.
