Eyes Open Iowa: Statewide Programs

EOI is committed to working closely with Iowa’s communities to help them support young people around sexual and reproductive health and the development of healthy relationships. We do this through a number of programs, through which staff work with school districts, community-based organizations, sexual health educators, parents, and teens themselves.

Through this programming, we reach approximately 200,000 young people annually with information to help them prevent pregnancy, make healthy decisions about sex and relationships, and set appropriate boundaries.

Games

Let’s Talk Trivia

A sexual health education game created to help parents and teens ditch the awkwardness and discover the truth.

There are six categories: Let’s Talk, Birth Control, Anatomy, STDs, Healthy Relationships, and Drugs & Alcohol. On your turn, roll the die and then the person to your left reads the question on the card with the corresponding color. If you answer the question correctly, you keep the card, which represents a point. The first one with 15 points AND a card of each color wins the game!
