Education Resources & Programs

Kachemak Bay Family Planning Clinic offers a range of trauma-informed and resiliency-oriented health education opportunities for teens or adults.

Teen Health Education

A medically accurate, school district-approved lesson package based on national standards for sexual health education, and presented by experienced adult staff and trained Peer Educators. 

Curriculum topics include: consent & safety, puberty & anatomy, pregnancy & STI (sexually transmitted infection) prevention, family values & teen goals, and healthy relationships. 

Adult/Parent Nights

Parent/caregiver events hosted by KBFPC, open to the community as a chance to build relationships between adults and our educators before teens are in class, learn about our lessons and ask any questions, prepare for student questions at home, and participate in growing the community of safe and trusted adults for local youth. Contact the Education Team for information about upcoming events.

Community Health Outreach

KBFPC partners with regional health & social services providers to increase awareness about quality, low-cost sexual and reproductive health services for people living on the Kenai Peninsula with barriers to accessing care. 

KBFPC staff also engage directly in community coalitions and in-person and virtual outreach activities with different public groups and educational events. The agency facilitates public forums and presentations on issues of sexual and reproductive health, such as parent/teen communication, adolescent development, violence awareness and prevention, healthy sexuality and development, STI prevention, and breast and cervical health.
