What is SLIP?
SLIP stands for “Sex, the law, internet and pornography”. It is designed to reach young offenders and young people at risk of offending. We know that many young people who offend are not able to attend formal sexual health and relationship education for a number of reasons. We hope that through SLIP, we can address this need in a fun and accessible way and give young people the facts they need to make positive choices.
Programme Aims
- Give the young people wider and more accurate knowledge about sex and relationships to encourage positive and informed choices.
- Give the young people tools to navigate their own sex and relationships in a healthy and legal way.
- Prevent offending and reoffending by helping the young people to understand the laws around sex clearly and the benefits of abiding by them.
The programme takes elements from the following acts:
- Sexual Offences Act 2003
- Principal Offences, and
- Sexual Offences Act 1956
- The Serious Crime Act 2015
- Protection from Harassment Act 1997
- Malicious Communications Act 1988
- Communications Act 2003
- The Protection of Children Act 1978
