URecFit and Wellness is dedicated to providing sexual health education and reducing the transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In partnership with the Maryland Department of Health (MHD), we provide STI prevention education and free safer sex supplies, such as external/internal condoms, lubricant, and dental dams. Safer sex supplies can be found in the URecFit and Wellness facility in locker rooms, the wellness suite, and at the pratt gym desk.
When used consistently and correctly, condoms can reduce the risk of STIs. Yet, only 64.6 percent of graduate students reported using a condom or other protective barrier during their last instance of sexual activity, according to the American College Health Association’s National College Health Assessment 2018 survey. Many states including Maryland have implemented condom availability programs in schools, and research has shown that these programs improve condom usage among young adults.
Clear communication is vital to the health of any relationship, especially sexual interaction. Healthy relationships talk about boundaries, desires, and sex. Learning to set boundaries is a key skill set that everyone must learn and be clear about. Ask permission every time and wait to hear a clear and sober “YES” before any sexual activity. Remember, sex without consent is sexual assault.
