The cast and crew of Arviat TV are taking their cameras to the streets this summer to find out what their community knows about sexual health.

In this clip, Ethan Tassiuk begins breaking down the stigma associated with discussing sexual health issues by interviewing his mom, Laura.

This summer, youth researchers are using arts education and film to empower their peers to speak out about issues in their communities.

The episode, for broadcast later this fall, is part of a participatory action research project to come up with culturally and demographically relevant solutions related to the skyrocketing rates of STIs, adolescent pregnancies and sexual abuse in our communities.
