Legislative Look-Ahead
As lawmakers introduce new bills that will shape what young people learn about their bodies, relationships, and health, staying informed is more critical than ever.
Real Education and Access for Healthy Youth Act (REAHYA)
The Real Education and Access for Healthy Youth Act is bold legislation that invests in honest, inclusive, and age-appropriate sex education and sexual health services for young people. It ends federal funding for harmful abstinence-only programs and prioritizes resources for underserved youth, including LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. REAHYA ensures that all youth have access to the information and care they need to lead healthy, self-determined lives.
