POSTPONING SEXUAL INVOLVEMENT
Postponing Sexual Involvement meets Federal and State guidelines requiring that eight key elements be addressed in providing abstinence education. Teens are given the knowledge, attitudes, and skills they need to postpone sexual involvement using a newly revised Postponing Sexual Involvement Series.
The Postponing Series recognizes that teens need opportunities to be think about and discuss social and peer pressures to become sexually involved. The Series does this in a guided way. Through the Series, teens decide on a stopping point and learn skills that enable them to carry out saying “no” to sex in a variety of problem situations commonly faced by teens.
Both the Middle School and High School versions of the Postponing Sexual Involvement Series consist of five skill-building sessions designed to help youth manage social and peer pressures that might lead to sexual involvement before marriage.
