Understanding
Sexualised Behaviours in Children and Young People
Understanding Sexualised Behaviours in Children and Young People [Understanding SLIP] is a workshop designed to support parents/carers, and/or professionals in navigating conversations about relationships and sex with young people.
If you are concerned that a child or teenager could be exposed to risky sexual behaviours* - online or face to face - then this workshop could provide the support you are looking for to help them understand the consequences of these behaviours and to help prevent them from engaging.
This course also explains the criteria for accessing the SLIP (Sex, the Law, Internet, and Pornography) intervention and how you can make a referral if this is something the young person is interested in.
*Risky behaviours include sending or viewing inappropriate and/or explicit images and content and inappropriate behaviours with or towards other people.
We can also deliver this workshop at your school or provision.
Understanding SLIP is free for parents and professionals in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough but if you live or work outside of the county, you can join a workshop for a charge - See Dhiverse charges
