Liz Ross is excited to host The Sex Ed Show on 91.7 KOOP. They are incredibly passionate about sex education because of the important role it plays in increasing awareness, reducing rape, decreasing violence, family planning, and more. Their goal with the show is to decrease the awkwardness people feel in discussing sex in general, break down stigmas and false stereotypes, share resources, and provide a safe space for sex education.
