Sexual Health Advocacy through Peer Education (SHAPE)

Facilitated classrooms providing comprehensive sexual health information in a safe space for MET students taught by MET students.

SHAPE works with the MET School to provide learning opportunities for MET students passionate about sexual health advocacy.  We train high school students to facilitate a curriculum covering  Anatomy and Physiology, Contraception, STIs, HIV/AIDS and Healthy Relationships.  Our Brown volunteers work closely in a mentoring role with MET students to create a program that facilitates an honest and open discussion of accurate information.
