#TalkingIsPower

Start early. Talk often. 

#TalkingIsPower Month is a national effort to spark meaningful conversations between young people and the champions who care about them most.

Why Talk to Teens?

1 in 4 girls will become pregnant at least once by age 20. And even though nearly all teens say they don’t want to get pregnant, most have never really thought about how pregnancy would affect their lives. We present the facts without adding any of our own thoughts or feelings; we are unbiased and open to a variety of viewpoints on these very sensitive issues. We believe it's important to educate teens on sex, love, and relationships so they can grow, make informed decisions, and live their best lives.
