Our Teens Deserve Better

Young people are most affected by the abstinence-only policy in Texas that has left our state with one of the highest teen birth rates in the nation.

We believe medically-accurate, age-appropriate, comprehensive sexuality education will help people learn to make healthy decisions, to foster communication skills, to develop meaningful relationships, and to express affection, love, and intimacy in ways that are consistent with their values.

Sample Letter for Campaign

Subject: Our Teens Deserve Better

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

Together, we, the undersigned, urge our elected officials at all levels of leadership to support comprehensive, medically accurate, age-appropriate sexual health education programs in school.

It is time for Texans to take a stand for teens. Our young people deserve the reliable, accurate information they need to make responsible decisions and stay healthy.
