The organization also offers counselling to young people and couples with emotional or relationship issues.   The Member Association provides family life and sexuality education to students and training to parents, teachers and professionals. It develops resources and supporting services to promote delivery of sexuality education. It conducts clinical and sociological research in areas pertaining to sexuality, fertility regulation and population.
