Friday 5/15 Agenda

Learning Goal: To understand what STI's are, and how they are prevented and treated.



Learning about STIs or sexually transmitted infections is important in order to take care of your body and prevent health and infertility problems. The term STI has replaced the term STD or sexually transmitted disease. These infections and diseases spread from person to person through intimate contact. STIs can affect guys and girls of all ages and backgrounds who are having sex or intimate contact.
