This questionnaire is being used to understand the correlation (if any) between the method of sexual education among

youth and their sexual health, in terms of unplanned pregnancies, and sexually transmitted diseases. All of the information from this questionnaire will be kept confidential, and the results will be anonymous. Some questions will be open ended, and some are multiple choice. For many of the multiple choice, several answers can be selected. As many of these questions are extremely personal, if a question makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to skip it.
