Sexual Education

While sexual activity is a deeply private matter, Yale College hopes to educate its students so that they may navigate this aspect of life in an informed and empowered manner. To that end, the following resources are available for students.

Yale Communication and Consent Educators (CCE) Program

The CCE Program is a diverse group of undergraduates that work together to foster a more positive sexual and social climate on campus. CCEs aim to end sexual violence by transforming Yale College's corner of contemporary culture into one where respect, mutuality, and mindfulness are the norms.
