Arizona Parents for Responsible Sex Education |
|
Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Planned Parenthood Arizona Advocacy Network.The short explanation of this alert was: Did you know more than 37 teenagers get pregnant in Arizona every single day! Today’s teens are saturated with sexually charged images, but are starved of accurate information about sex or sexuality. While teachers can’t talk about sex in school and parents are too embarrassed to talk about sex at home, our young adults are thinking about and engaging in sex without the real facts to protect themselves physically and/or emotionally.
We need to take a stand on behalf of the health and futures of today’s youth. It is reckless that we deny teens knowledge about themselves and their bodies. We have the information - parents and community members have the power and influence to ensure that this accurate information is available in the classroom. Join Parents for Responsible Sex Education! As a parent or youth advocate you have tremendous power. Kids count on you to look out for and protect them. And we’re counting on you, too. We need you to join us and advocate for medically accurate sex education in our schools. You hold the real power to influence what is taught in our schools. Your voice can make the difference for all of Arizona’s children. Business Meetings: The first Thursday of each month at from 6:00pm to 7:30pm at Planned Parenthood – 5651 N. 7th Street (on the SE corner of 7th Street & Montebello, South of Bethany Home, please park in back and go upstairs.) Educational Events: The third Thurday of each month from 6:00pm to 7:30pm. at Bookman's at 8034 N. 19th Ave. (the northwest corner of 19th Avenue and Northern) in the community room.
