It’s an uncertain time for everyone. But when it comes to learning about sexual health, we’re here with you, no matter what — even if you can’t go outside. If you want to learn more about sexual health, are spending extra time with your kids (who have lots of questions!), or just want something to do during your couch time, we’ve got tons of fun and educational videos, apps, and other digital resources for people of all ages.

For young people (or anyone wanting to brush up on their sexual health info):

• Roo — Our totally free, private sexual health chatbot that answers all your questions about sex, relationships, puberty, and more. No question is too awkward or embarrassing for Roo, so ask away! You can also check out our Roo High School video series.

• Chat/Text — For those times you need to talk with a real person, chat or text in real-time with trained health educators about pregnancy, STDs, birth control, and more. It’s free and confidential.

• Consent 101 videos — This four-video series is all about consent — what it is, how to know if someone wants to have sex with you, and what to do if they don’t.

• Talking about safer sex, testing, and STDs — These three live-action videos show you how to have those sometimes awkward (but always necessary) conversations with your sexual partners without blaming, shaming, or ruining the mood.

• Spot On — Our gender-neutral app helps you track your period, fertility, and birth control method. It’s free and available for download in your phone’s app store. You’ll also get period facts and tips from the experts at Planned Parenthood — and keep an eye out for Cycleosaurus, the friendly dinosaur! Download the Spot On app and start your own 30 Night Challenge at home.

• PlannedParenthood.org/teens — We’ve got tons of great info on our site about puberty, relationships, staying safe online, and more.

• Ours to Tell — A short film that shares the stories of four people from diverse backgrounds and the empowerment that comes from being able to access abortion and live full, healthy lives. 

• How to respond to a story of sexual assault — A video with tips for responding in a supportive and compassionate way if someone shares their experience of sexual assault, without adding to the shame and guilt that many survivors feel.

• Sexual health videos — Quick, animated videos that give you the basics on birth control, how pregnancy happens (you might be surprised at the timeline!), STDs, PrEP and PEP, and abortion. (También en español.)

• Coloring and activities — Tap into your creativity, unwind, and relieve some stress with our coloring and activity pages.
