Funding for Comprehensive Sex Education for Schools in Low Income Communities
The Issue
Many young teens from low income communities that attend local schools often miss out on important sex education. With comprehensive sex education, young teens will learn about: how abstinence is one of the best methods to avoid STDs and pregnancies, how to properly use condoms and contraceptives, the choices women have if they're pregnant, and many other helpful information regarding sex. Comprehensive sex education doesn't encourage the young teens to have sex, but to be smart and safe when they do decide to have sex. Due to the lack of sex education, many young teens from low income communities have unprotected sex which leads to them contracting STDs or getting pregnancy. With your help, we can educate young teens about healthy sex habits and lower their risks of contracting STDs and lower teen pregnancy rates.
