Sacred Choices: Adolescent Relationships and Sexual Ethics: The Reform Movement's Response to the Need for Faith-Based Sexuality Education

Abstract

Sacred Choices: Adolescent Relationships and Sexual Ethics is a sexual ethics curriculum for middle school and high school students developed by the Union for Reform Judaism. Sacred Choices strives to teach Reform Jewish teens that their bodies are gifts from God and that Judaism provides relevant guidance on how to use and care for that gift and deal with the consequences of their choices. Sacred Choices is a sexual ethics curriculum that offers a Reform Jewish counterpoint to those messages projected by popular culture.
