The Healthy Colorado Youth Alliance Mission

The Alliance seeks to reduce rates of unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV, in Colorado youth by ensuring that all young people have access to science-based, comprehensive, medically-accurate, culturally sensitive, and age-appropriate sexuality education, information and resources to make informed decisions about their health and relationships.

 

What The Alliance Does

Education - to dispel myths, address concerns, highlight benefits and promote implementation of comprehensive sex education.

 

Community Organizing - to help build local power and inform policy change.
