KISS (Keep It Safe Summer)/ School Leavers' Program

The K.I.S.S program has been developed by staff and volunteers from WAAC, and was piloted in 2000. K.I.S.S focuses on encouraging the integration of safer sex and drug education to assist school leavers' to make healthy behavioural choices. It aims to minimise potential harms associated with unsafe sexual behaviour and alcohol and other drug use to both Leavers and the host community during end of school year celebrations.

The project will take place in a number of key locations including Rottnest Island, Perth and Dunsborough. The K.I.S.S program is designed to provide target group with information and resources to minimise potential harm resulting from various risk taking behaviours.
