Recording of live webinar on October 27, 2021.
As Stop It Now! launches a new website and helpline for youth with questions and concerns about their own sexual interests and behaviors, we will both share this new resource and also explore some of the youth inquiries from our Helpline. By sharing these voices and experiences, professionals working with youth can better understand the questions and concerns from young people about safe sexual behaviors. From struggles with pornography addiction to concerns about situations involving younger children, courageous youth are reaching out for help and guidance. Welcoming our guest expert, David Prescott, we will discuss the unique experience of the young person recognizing that their own sexual feelings, thoughts, and behaviors towards children and others could be harmful, and who are specifically interested in how to manage these and live a harm-free and fulfilling life.
