You want your young people to understand their bodies.

But who can you trust to teach them?

The misinformation is everywhere. The culture wars are loud. And you’re trying to help your community navigate between the scary stuff and the lies about the scary stuff.

Your youth are already getting sex education.

The problem is whether it comes from social media, Google, and other kids—or from a physician-led, clinically accurate curriculum built for faith communities.

Misinformation Is Everywhere

But What Can Faith Communities Do?

You know your young people are learning from social media, Google, and friends who are just as clueless as they are confident.

Most faith leaders know they should be having detailed conversations about sex, consent, contraception, abuse, puberty, and pregnancy. But many don’t know how to frame these conversations in a way that honors both the clinical truth and the values their community holds.

Most importantly, most communities don’t have a resource that teaches the science without layers of shame, or that honors the diversity of families and identities actually sitting in your pews.

So you put it off and hope the school or a book or website will fill the gap. And while you wait, someone else fills the gap.

The Stakes Could Not Be Higher

The misinformation leads to real consequences.

Kids who can’t recognize abuse or assault because no one ever told them what those things actually are

Tweens who don’t know that oral sex is sex — and come into the doctor’s office with consequences they didn’t know were possible

Teens and adults who can’t recognize an unhealthy relationship and don’t know how to get out. (Yes, according to the NSES, this is part of a comprehensive sex ed program!)

Adults who can’t communicate with their partners about their own bodies because no one ever taught them the words

And nearly half of all pregnancies in the United States and worldwide are unplanned!

Did You Get This in Church Growing Up?

The Outdated Textbook

  • Method: Reading from materials written before the internet existed.
  • Content: Purely clinical “plumbing” talk with zero acknowledgment of gender identity, sexual orientation, or family diversity.
  • Vibe: “We have to teach this, but we’re not happy about it.”

The Fear-Based Lecture (Scare Tactics Wrapped in a “Moral” Package)

  • Method: Shock value via terrifying medical photos.
  • Content: Extreme focus on STIs and “ruined lives.”
  • Vibe: “If you touch another person, you will literally dissolve in green goo.”

The Uncomfortable Silence (Hoping They’ll Figure It Out)

  • Method: Avoiding the topic altogether, hoping families talk about it (they don’t know how).
  • Content: No formal curriculum. Hope as a strategy.
  • Vibe: “Maybe if we don’t mention it, it won’t happen.”

The Exclusionary Default (Everyone Else Is an Exception)

  • Method: Materials centered on heterosexual two-parent families.
  • Content: LGBTQ+ youth, single-parent families, blended families, kids with same-sex parents see themselves as the afterthought, not the default.
  • Vibe: “You exist, but you’re not who we were thinking about.”

What Faith Communities Are Up Against

You know your young people are going to encounter misinformation. You know the world is loud and confusing and full of people who don’t share your values trying to shape what your kids believe about bodies, relationships, consent, gender, and autonomy.

You want them to have the truth first. The real science. The kind of education that builds critical thinking, not shame or fear. And you want it framed in a way that honors your community’s values with staying honest about the biology.

But here’s the problem: you’re not sure who to trust.

  • The school curriculum (if there even is one) feels outdated or shaped by people who definitely don’t share your perspective—or it avoids the hard topics altogether
  • Most faith-based resources still carry traces of shame-based messaging or leave LGBTQ+ youth and diverse family structures invisible and the good ones take significant training to facilitate.
  • The books you’ve found are either too simplistic or too clinical without any acknowledgment of the relational context that matters in faith communities
  • Bringing in an outside speaker means weeks of coordination and hoping they show up
  • And building your own curriculum? That’s not realistic

So you’re stuck in this impossible position:

You want your young people educated, but you don’t trust most of the educators.

You want them informed about the clinical truth, but you’re not sure how to hold that alongside your community’s values.

You want something sustainable that doesn’t require a volunteer to become an expert.

You don't need sex ed.

You need Making More Humans.

You’re not looking for “the talk.” You’re looking for a way to give your community the truth first — before the internet does, before their friends do, before someone with an agenda does.

Making More Humans is a comprehensive, video-based human reproduction curriculum built by a physician who teaches the science the way you want it taught: clearly, thoroughly, and without the shame or fear-based messaging most programs still can’t shake.

Your youth learn the actual biology of reproduction, puberty, consent, boundaries, and decision-making — with the brain science that actually protects them in real-world situations. And your community doesn’t have to train anyone. You don’t have to find a speaker. You don’t have to build something from scratch.

You share a link. Families get access. Young people start learning immediately. You stay in control of the context and the conversations.

Making More Humans is Different. Not Fear-Based. Not Morality-First. Not a Volunteer with a Script.

PHYSICIAN-LED

Clinical truth. Not theory.

Dr. Robin spent decades watching what happens when people don’t have accurate information about their own bodies. She built this curriculum from those patients — the ones who came in too late, too ashamed, or too misinformed to get the help they needed.

REAL EDUCATION

Understanding that sticks. Not facts they’ll forget.

Most sex ed leaves kids knowing words they can’t define and concepts they can’t apply. Making More Humans builds on how learning actually works — kids think through biology instead of memorizing it. The result is understanding they can actually use.

THE FULL PICTURE

The whole story. Not just the basics.

School sex ed covers the mechanics of reproduction and STD basics—that’s it. Making More Humans covers the full arc of human biology as a life skill. Embryology, development, puberty, relationships, consent, what to do when something goes wrong, how to advocate for yourself in healthcare, and what healthy change looks like across the lifespan.

ZERO FACILITATOR TRAINING

Turn-key. No weekends away. No certification programs.

You provide the community and the space for conversations. Dr. Robin provides the expert instruction. This is the opposite of programs that require intensive facilitator training. The adults can learn alongside the youth. Anyone who wants to preview lessons ahead of time has access to an audio version that works in your normal podcast app.

The Clinical Truth Approach to Sex and Puberty

Truth is a Safety Shield

Knowledge is the most powerful protection a child can have. When kids know the clinical facts about their bodies, consent, and relationships, they can recognize danger, name what happened to them, and get help. The risks communities fear most are prevented not by ignorance, but by accurate information.

Truth is an Antidote to Shame

Our culture is incredibly effective at creating shame around the human body. The clinical truth removes that shame by removing the moral lens. When human biology is presented as biology — not as a judgment, not as a belief system — it stops being something to be embarrassed about and starts being something to understand.

Science Doesn't Take Sides

Reproductive biology, sexual development, gender — these are not political issues or moral debates. They are scientific facts that have been studied, verified, and understood for generations. This curriculum teaches what is actually known about how the human body works. Not what someone believes about it.

Making More Humans gives your youth the physician-led, clinically accurate education in human biology that most faith communities can’t provide alone—so they grow up with the knowledge to stay safe, make informed decisions, and understand the body they’ll live in their whole life.

“Our confirmation families appreciated that this was physician-led. It took the burden off our volunteers and gave families a trusted resource. We wish we’d had this years ago.”

– Youth and Family Pastor, Denver area congregation

Dr. Robin Dickinson, MD

I was a teenager with no personal experience the first time I taught sex ed.

My brother had just gotten “the talk.” It lasted about a minute before his stepdad bolted out of the room. So I went in instead, pulled out my biology textbook, and explained the whole thing — genetics first, then how conception actually worked, then why people didn’t get pregnant every time.

My brother’s first response: “WHAT? That’s disgusting. There is no way people do that.”

His second response, once I walked him through the science: complete understanding. No shame. No fear. Just science and plain speaking.

I went on to medical school and practiced family medicine for over a decade. And I kept seeing the same thing — that plain clinical truth, delivered without shame or scare tactics, was the only thing that actually protected people. And I kept seeing what happened when nobody provided it.

Years ago, my own ELCA congregation asked me to recommend a comprehensive human reproduction curriculum for their confirmation families. I looked everywhere. Everything I found was either outdated, shame-based, excluded LGBTQ+ youth or diverse families, or required facilitators to go through intensive training just to teach it.

So I built it myself.

Making More Humans exists because I couldn’t unsee what happens when young people don’t have accurate information. And because I believe every faith community should have access to this without having to do what I did. Build it from scratch.

That’s it. No bulk uploads, no password management from your office, no tech support burden.

Have Questions Before You Start?

Here’s what faith communities often wonder before they start:

How many volunteers do we need, and do they have to be trained?

Your volunteers don’t need special training. They can learn alongside the students as they go through the curriculum.

Any number of volunteers will work.

If you have a large number of volunteers, you can watch the lesson together and your youth can discuss what they learned in small groups with a mentor. 

If you’re managing with just one leader, you have some options.

  • Some prefer to have parents and youth attend a weekly or monthly workshop or class together. 
  • Some will work with just the youth.
  • Some will be available for questions but have the program done entirely by the parents at home who sign off that their youth completed each lesson.
  • Finally, some simply provide it as an optional resource and are prepared to answer questions as they come up.

If you choose to have in-person discussions, you can either watch the lessons as a group or have families watch at home.  The Leader Discussion Guide was designed to work in classrooms or larger groups so you can lead the group yourself.

For larger groups, the Leader Discussion Guide works best. The Leader Discussion Guide shows the goal of each conversation and includes discussion prompts. That’s all they need. 

Small groups have the option of using the Leader Discussion Guide or the Family Answer Key alongside the student manual. These are designed for smaller group discussion so generally won’t work as well in a large group.

Schools have limited time and resources, so they focus on the mechanics of reproduction and how to avoid STIs.

You’re looking for an alternative because you already know that you want something better for your youth.

The National Sex Education Standards call for comprehensive, developmentally appropriate education starting young. Almost no school meets them.

Clinical truth and values aren’t in conflict. This teaches the science. Your community provides the values-based context through family conversations and community culture. 

We encourage you to first provide the science foundation and then discuss how this applies to your community’s values. To assist you in planning the conversation, we’ve provided a list of values keywords by lesson. The editable document makes it easy to take notes right there.

You have the flexibility to choose what works best for your community. 

Some choose to have students and families work through the materials independently at home, some come together in a parent-youth session, and some watch the lessons in confirmation or youth group.

Even at home, there are options.  Some will watch together (parent + young person). Some young people will watch independently. Some will do one lesson a week, others will move faster.

The curriculum is designed to work however your community and families engage with it.

The Clinical Truth Approach means this curriculum teaches what is actually known about how the human body works, not what someone believes about it. Science doesn’t take sides.

Topics like gender development, sexual orientation, contraception, pregnancy termination, and sexual pleasure are all covered because they are part of human biology. You can see exactly what’s in each module in the curriculum overview above and how Dr. Robin teaches them by reading the details on this page. Nothing is hidden and nothing is added. Everything is grounded in clinical science.

If you have specific questions about content, contact Jill at jill@docrobinschool.com.

Making More Humans is designed to be flexible. Some parents watch the lessons first to prepare for conversations. Others watch alongside their child or teen. Some older teens work through it independently. The curriculum works all three ways.

The answer key is designed to support parents in talking about their child’s answers in the manual. In addition, each module includes a discussion guide to help families talk about what they’ve watched because the goal isn’t just that your child learns this. It’s that your whole family has the language to keep the conversation going.

A private podcast version is also included with your purchase. This is perfect for parents or leaders listening ahead so you’re prepared before watching with young people. You’ll find the link in your group leader materials when you log in and parents will have the same link in their confirmation email when they redeem their code. The youth should still watch the whole video but the audio version helps adults preview without having to find a way to do so privately.

About 30 days before your access expires, we ask if you want to renew. Same price, same terms. If you purchase more redemption codes for families, those will be added to the same code within 1-2 business days. Redemption codes don’t expire, so you can also carry unused codes over from one year to the next.

Your Community Deserves the Clinical Truth.

Who is teaching them now?

Your kids are already getting an education. The only question is whether it comes from social media, Google, and other kids…or from a physician who built this curriculum because she was tired of seeing the consequences of not teaching it.

Making More Humans gives your child the physician-led, clinically accurate education in human biology that school won’t provide and that you aren’t equipped to give alone — so they grow up with the knowledge to stay safe, make informed decisions, and understand the body they’ll live in their whole life.
