Comprehensive Sex Education
This section provides Definitions and Guidelines for Comprehensive Sexuality Education, what to look for in a Sex Education Curricula and where to find it. We are also including the current state of Sex Education in Georgia as well as GPRHE Goals for Sex Education in Georgia
Comprehensive Sexuality Education will include most, if not all, of the following topics: human anatomy & reproduction, reproductive health & sexually transmitted infections, contraception & abstinence, emotional relationships, reproductive rights & responsibilities, sexual exploitation and legal aspects of sexuality, as well as self esteem, peer pressure, and sex in the media. For more information on the individual topics go to our Resource Section
Recent, and important, developments in regards to sexuality education are the results published in November, 2009 of an independent CDC Task Force. The Task Force concludes that there is sufficient evidence that comprehensive risk reduction interventions are effective in reducing risky sexual behavior and limiting the spread of sexually transmitted infections, while there is insufficient evidence of the effectiveness of abstinence-only programs.
