Abby Rosenstein Interview at Teach.Com

Abby Rosenstein, Advocates' Program Manager of School Health Equity, is interviewed on teach.com this week about abstinence education vs. comprehensive sexual health education.

It provides young people with information about their bodies and their health, and skills to think critically, negotiate confidently and build healthy and mutually respectful relationships throughout their lives.
