Colorado refuses abstintence-only funds
I love it. Colorado, home of the purity ball, is rejecting abstinence only funds.
Colorado officials this year are rejecting nearly $500,000 from the federal government for programs that teach "abstinence-only" sex education, saying the teaching tactic is ineffective when it comes to preventing teen pregnancies and the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
I'd call that a win for Colorado youth, for sure!
