Sexual Health

Sexual health is an important part of your overall health and well-being. At Huron Perth Public Health (HPPH), we provide sexual health clinics that offer birth control, sexually transmitted infection testing and general sexual health information and support. We provide a caring, non-judgemental environment to discuss topics including sexual assault, emergency contraception and abortion services. 

Sexual orientation 

Sexual orientation is about who you are attracted to both physically and mentally. Regardless of sexual orientation and gender, you have the right to express your sexual orientation without fear of discrimination, harassment and assault. 

Call the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Youth Line for confidential, non-judgmental and information support or visit OK2BME for support services available in the Waterloo Region. 

Coming out 

Coming out is the act of telling others about your sexual orientation. For some people this may be difficult. Visit Open Closet to learn more about support services to help you through this process.
