Above the Waist was designed using cutting edge research in the field of adolescent neuroscience but is rooted in the philosophies that that have driven the 30-year success of the evidence-based CAS Carrera Program. 

Above the Waist is a holistic, curriculum aimed at advancing age-appropriate sexual literacy and building the competence, confidence and connectedness of all participants. Our goals is to ignite the desire among young people to make, safe healthy decisions during adolescence by recognizing that their bodies are extraordinary, powerful and worth protecting.  The curriculum is divided into four parts -- YOUR BRAIN, YOUR BODY, YOUR RIGHTS, YOUR RESPONSIBILITY -- and covers topics such as Adolescent Brain Development; Health Risk Taking & Decision Making; Healthy Relationships; Sexual Identity; and Communication with Trusted Adults, Peers and Medical Providers. Above the Waist is hands-on, interactive, inclusive, facilitator-friendly, and brain-appropriate.
