PEER EDUCATION

LTAS: Let's Talk
About Sex.

Real dialogue, clear information, and meaningful impact. Bringing medical students into high schools to break the stigma.

Breaking Taboos

For a decade, the LTAS project has connected San Luigi and EMSA students with local high schools to promote sexual health through direct, honest communication. We believe in open, stigma-free conversations about STIs, contraception, and relationships.

It’s peer-to-peer education at its best. Medical students, trained by experts, step into classrooms to provide a safe space where teenagers can ask questions they might be afraid to ask elsewhere.
