About the PPEP Talk® Schools Program
PPEP Talk® is a fun, medically accurate and age-appropriate information session incorporating the modern neuroscience of pain, of benefit to all students in Year 9 and above, particularly the 1 in 4 girls and people assigned female at birth with severe period pain. PPEP Talk® addresses the number one priority of the National Action Plan for Endometriosis – education and awareness. PPEP Talk® is the largest pain education program for students in Australia. It plays a critical role in informing and educating students to recognise and identify whether their pain is normal, how all the different symptoms fit together, simple ways to reduce their pain, and how to look for further help if pain is severe. This allows students to fulfil their true potential, without the burden of pain.
Funds raised from Let's Lunch for Endo will be donated to the Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia for PPEP Talk®
