Candidate Positions on Sex Education, HIV Prevention and Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage Programs

Since 1995, G-CAPP has fought to eliminate teen pregnancy by establishing results oriented programs, advocating for sound, pragmatic public policy and educating the public about the challenges of living in a country with the highest rates of teen pregnancy in the fully industrialized world.

Come November, we will have an opportunity to determine who will lead the United States into the 21st century with a vision that includes our values and principles as an organization. To this end, G-CAPP wanted to provide its members and allies some information about the positions Sen. John McCain and Sen. Barack Obama have as it relates to sex education, HIV prevention and abstinence-only-until-marriage programs .

Our intention is to inform and empower Americans so they can make the best decision possible for their families, communities and our country. Remember, every dollar we invest in our children will provide an incalculable return that benefits society as a whole. Regardless of the outcome on Election Day, G-CAPP will continue to bring about  positive change in Georgia one person at a time.

Thank You
