Abstinence Education
The Section 510, Title V Abstinence Education federal funding is intended to promote the postponement of sexual involvement by teens by changing norms and teaching teens needed skills.
The goals of abstinence education funding are to:
- Increase the number of adolescents who are making choices to remain sexually abstinent.
- Increase the number of adolescents who are informed of the social, psychological and health gains to be realized by abstaining from premarital sexual activity.
- Increase the number of adolescents who are making healthy lifestyle choices to postpone sexual activity by avoiding situations and risk behaviors that would make them more vulnerable to sexual advances and urges.
