Expanding Evidence-Based Sexual Health Programs in the U.S.: New Findings on a Parent-Teen Program for Rural Families
Journal of Adolescent HealthVol. 69Issue 3p359–360Published in issue: September, 2021- Leslie M. Kantor
Cited in Scopus: 0In the U.S., there is no national policy or government issued set of guidelines governing sex education. Rather, over the last 30 years, the U.S. federal government has created funding streams for competing approaches to sex education. Abstinence-only-until-marriage education received funding beginning in 1981 as part of the Adolescent Family Life Act and abstinence-only-until-marriage funding was expanded significantly in 1996 as part of national welfare reform [1]. Further increases in funding took place in the early 2000s as part of the Community-Based Abstinence Education program [1].
