Balanced and Responsible Sex Education at Every Age



We are all sexual throughout our lives, and learning about our sexuality is an integral part of living.  Sexuality education guides our understanding of sexual behavior.  It helps us understand the physical, intellectual, and emotional realities of our "femaleness" and "maleness," and our relationships with one another.  It also helps us understand our sexual and reproductive health care needs. 

Planned Parenthood, which has maintained the nation's largest and most respected network of professional sexuality educators and programs for more than 90 years, has learned that sex education programs are most effective when they are responsible, balanced, inclusive, and age-appropriate.
