teenCARE (Character, Abstinence and Relationships Education) promotes sexual abstinence until marriage as the best choice for teen physical, mental and emotional health. All in an effort to assure freedom from STDs (sexually transmitted diseases), to eliminate unmarried teen pregnancy and to address the emotional dimension of early sexual activity.

| What teens have to say... |
|
|
• "I liked everything about the program I attended. Now I know in the future how to say
NO if someone wants to have sex, but I don't."
• "This helped me understand the importance of waiting till marriage to have sex."
• "My teacher did a great job of explaining everything. We were treated like people and
not just dumb kids. The problems as we know them came up."
• "Thank you for doing this program. I was thinking about letting my "V" (virginity) go in
college, but now, I've decided that I'm going to remain abstinent. Thanks!!"
