ANNOTATION: The "Time Out! For Me" training module is a 6-session workshop designed to help women express their intention to exercise safe sex with their partner. "Lack of comfort with her sexuality, inability to discuss sexual topics, and a failure to recognize her right to do so are primary hurdles that must be overcome before she can hope to negotiate and implement a safer sex strategy with a sexual partner" (p. vi). Sessions cover: a new outlook on sexuality; my personal rights; getting through to people; woman-care self-care; choices for today's woman; and talking about sexuality. Appendixes include: how to use this manual; preparing to present information about human sexuality; FACTS Reference Section (e.g., articles, illustrations, glossary of sexual terminology, birth control fact sheets, and sexually transmitted diseases fact sheets); and Client Survey. Studies show that participation in this workshop results in increased self-esteem ratings, knowledge scores, assertiveness attitude and safer sex attitude.
