Teens need and deserve responsible sex education that includes information about abstinence, and about protection from diseases and pregnancy.

The Healthy Teens Act (HB 449/SB 848) will replace ineffective abstinence-only programs with medically-accurate, age-appropriate comprehensive sex education.

Join us on Tuesday to learn more about this significant piece of legislation,

filed for the 2008 legislative session.
