About me:

Get the Facts NY supports the right of every young person to access the information and develop the skills necessary to make safe and responsible choices about his or her sexual health. Get the Facts NY advocates for medically accurate, age-appropriate sex education for youth in New York State. www.getthefactsny.org


Get the Facts NY supports the passage of the Healthy Teens Act, which would set up a process for schools and programs to apply for grants to teach age appropriate, medically accurate sex education (click to learn more!) This is so important because right now New York State is getting the largest amount of money for abstinence only education, only after Texas and Florida. In these programs teachers are only allowed to teach about abstinence until marriage and cannot even answer questions about contraception.
This is why www.getthefactsny.org is so important.

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone that is interested in getting Real Sex Ed in schools!


If you are......Take a minute and see everything there is on this great website www.getthefactsny.org and grade your school’s sex education, because you have the right to be informed! So get active and help the youth of New York State gain access to the information they deserve in school.

(Sorry this isn't personalized to every individual,
I'm sending this out to EVERYONE on the site)
While I'm in the process of doing some 'friend cleaning' see blog, I thought
it might be a good time to ask those of you who *want* to be here to
subscribe to my blog if you haven't already. Not at all necessary to
not being deleted, Just thought I might as well get it all done at
once, since the process is  going to take some time. It may also be a
good time for those who don't really support the PTSD cause and/or don't want to see pictures or
comments like this to just go ahead and delete, cuz I can't run this site afraid of
who I can send what comments to. I mean if you want to delete the
comment, but keep me/the site/the cause, that's fine. I just want it to be
abundantly clear, if it isn't already, this is and will remain an MJ
judgment/hate free site. You don't have to like him....just keep the
hate elsewhere. Thanks, I appreciate your understanding and patience
during this transitional time.

I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved.

I know that I can give love for a minute, for half an hour, for a day, for a month, but I can give.

I am very happy to do that,
I want to do that.

~Princess Diana~



Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved
