Adolescent Sexuality: A Curriculum for Social Workers

摘要

Social work has not sufficiently addressed positive adolescent sexuality in its scholarship and education. This curriculum utilizes lecture, small and large group discussion, case vignettes, role-play and writing activities to increase social workers' comfort, knowledge and skills about adolescent sexual well-being. This enhances the ability of social workers to address sexuality among adolescents using a strength-based framework. The curriculum provides implications for social work policy, practice and research.
