The health professional can be helpful to the adolescent, the adolescent's family, and the community through participating in and initiating local sex education programs. Religious settings provide a great potential for sexuality education within a value framework. A helpful curriculum will include the meaning of sexuality; developing a positive concept of sexuality, and a healthy sexual identity; present the issues of adolescent sexuality, including the various health issues; and an understanding of quality relationships within the family and among peers. If health professions and the community religious institutions can joint together, they can reach the goals of most programs in human sexuality, namely, "learning to appreciate our sexuality as a positive potential for self-expression, fulfillment and intimacy; respect for the personhood and well-being of others; and responsible decision-making."
健康专业人员可以通过参与和发起当地的性教育项目,来帮助青少年、青少年家庭以及社区。宗教场所为在价值框架内开展性教育提供了巨大潜力。一个有用的课程将包括性的含义;形成积极的性观念和健康的性身份认同;呈现青少年性方面的问题,包括各种健康问题;以及理解家庭内部和同龄人之间的优质关系。如果健康专业人员和社区宗教机构能够联合起来,他们就能实现大多数人性教育项目的目标,即“学会将我们的性视为自我表达、满足和亲密关系的积极潜力;尊重他人的人格和福祉;以及做出负责任的决策”。
