I wish to acknowledge the cooperation and contribution of time, effort and energy by the many people with whom I have consulted in the course of preparing this briefing kit. They answered questions, supplied resources and valuable insight, and critiques of the drafts. I thank them and have made every effort to fairly and accurately reflect their views. I particularly would like to thank all the members of the Nova Scotia Round Table on Youth Sexual Health, the adult community members and the young people from Halifax, Glace Bay and Shelburne who participated in both the development and pilot testing of this resource.
This briefing kit was prepared for the Health Promotion and Programs Branch of Health Canada in partnership with the Nova Scotia Round Table on Youth Sexual Health and Planned Parenthood Nova Scotia. The views expressed herein are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Department of Health Canada or of the Nova Scotia Departments who sit at the Round Table.
