About me: Advocates for Youth is dedicated to creating programs and advocating for policies that help young people make informed and responsible decisions about their reproductive and sexual health.
We envision a society that views sexuality as normal and healthy and treats young people as a valuable resource. We believe:
Youth have the RIGHT to accurate sexual health information and confidential contraception and HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment services.
Youth deserve RESPECT. They must be included as decisions are made that affect their lives.
Society has the RESPONSIBILITY to provide youth with the tools they need to safeguard their sexual health, and young people have the responsibility to protect themselves from unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV.
Young people across the country fight for their right to accurate sexual health information and services as part of Advocates’ Youth Activist Network. Sign up for ongoing information about opportunities for activism here and around the world!
Who I'd like to meet: Everyone who thinks that young people have a right to know the facts and be a part of the decisions that affect us. We should never be denied access to sexual health information and services.
BE a PART of an AMAZING PROJECT for sexual health.

"Be the change you want to see in the World" -Mahatma Ghandi
"If we want world peace, we must truly let go of our attachments and live like nomads. Thats where I no mad at you, you no mad at me. That way, there'll surely be no madness on the planet. And peace begins with each of us. A little peace here, a little peace there. Pretty soon all the peaces will fit together and make one big peace everywhere."
I welcome peace. The question is not "Can peace be possible in this world?" but instead, "Is it not impossible that peace be absent here?" ACIM
