Meet the Illinois youth taking sex education curriculum into their own hands with their handbook, ‘Shattering the Taboo: A Guide to Sexual Health Education.’
developed by SIECUS: Sex Ed for Social Change, a nonprofit that advances sex education. SIECUS’ national sex ed standards were first published in 2012, and updated in 2020. The U.S. Department of Education does not require public schools to teach sex education, and doesn’t recommend specific curriculum.
IMSA President and CEO Evan Glazer said in a statement, the school collaborated with SEI students to include their ideas in the school’s programming which provides age and developmentally appropriate and inclusive information on an array of topics that focus on teaching students about the importance of personal health and safety.IMSA is not part of a local school district and therefore not governed by a Board of Education, but rather a board of trustees.
“We worked with Lurie Children’s Hospital, the ACLU, the Illinois Coalition Against Sexual Assault, UIC School of Public Health and SIECUS to get their input on the research,” Park said. “We took into account SB 818 because it’s a really robust curriculum that we could go off of. We wrote stuff out with diagrams that are detailed enough so people can understand. We’re selling them in hopes that schools can implement it as a guiding curriculum for their schools.
“Student organizing is the move,” Ravine said. “There still will be a need in each and every community for student leaders like this wonderful Sex Ed Initiative group to continue to look at their own school districts to see what other advocacy they can do. Our young people tell us all the time: We are looking for really inclusive, thoughtful dialogue. I’m hoping this group of young people are going to inspire young people across our state.
“After the Roe v. Wade situation, we did want to donate to abortion funds across the country, in addition to other sex ed projects going on so that we can fund other places that are in need of sex education, and the schools that need teachers or materials,” Park said. Tang said the message that the initiative emphasizes is sex education isn’t something that only adults can partake in, youth can and should take part in the conversation and make change at their own schools. Park said their hope is that the handbook is used as a guide for schools’ curricula, a general outline for important topics. Park said she’s spoken with some Chicago Public School students about it, however CPS administration hasn’t heard about the handbook yet.
