Hi! There are different paths to becoming a sex educator, depending on the kind of work you want to do, where you want to work, and if you're wanting to pursue higher education or not. For example, I made it my major in college, and we even had LGBTQ+ Studies as a minor for whoever wanted that as their focus, so that's one option. Whether it's viable or not is less so the question, because the answer to that is yes it is, but whether it's an easy field to find employment in is another (short answer: it's not). There are also a lot of places that hire volunteers (like us!), since funding is hard to come by for this type of work. Is your concern more about how to become a sex educator or whether it's a good route to take at all in the current political climate?
