The State of Sex Education is Failing Our Youth
Only about half of states require sex education to be taught, and only a quarter mandate medically accurate information. As of 2020, fewer than half of high schools and only 20% of middle schools teach all essential sex education topics recommended by the CDC. The consequences of this inadequacy are far-reaching and measurable.
The Cost is More Than Educational
The impact of inadequate sex education extends beyond the classroom into public health and economic concerns. The United States maintains higher rates of teenage pregnancies and STIs compared to other developed nations, with direct medical costs of STIs estimated at $16 billion annually.
Teen pregnancies alone cost U.S. taxpayers $9.4 billion yearly.
LGBTQIA+ youth face even greater challenges, with most schools providing limited or no inclusive education that addresses their needs and experiences.
