Curriculum Implementation

Pono Choices is intended to be delivered where youth ages 11 to 13 in Hawai‘i congregate or go for sexual health education. Such settings may include schools, community centers, and health clinics. The number of sessions implemented will vary based on the schedules of each site; however, it is ideal for all ten of the lessons to be delivered in their entirety and in sequential order. The curriculum is flexible and has been designed to accommodate individual sites’ schedules so that ideal delivery may be reached.
