Help Families Talk During "Let's Talk" Month

Did you know that October is “Let’s Talk” Month?  This month is also known as “National Family Sexuality Education Month.”  Each year, over 50 national organizations celebrate this month with campaigns to help families talk about sex. 

During October, encourage your patients to talk!  Parents and teens can use this month as an excuse to start conversation. They could say:   “I heard that October is 'Let’s Talk' Month.  It’s all about helping parents and teens talk about sex.  There’s even a website called 'TalkWithYourKids.org'.  Have you heard about it?”
