The short explanation of this alert was:

 

Healthy Teens Act Introduced in NYS!

 

Assemblymember Richard Gottfried (D-Manhattan) and Senator Nicholas Spano (R-Westchester) have introduced the Healthy Teens Act in the New York State Legislature.

 

This legislation will make resources  available to fund age-appropriate, medically accurate sex education in New York State. School districts, BOCES, school-based health centers and community-based organizations would be able to apply for grants to develop and implement programs that provide students with real sex education.

New York State currently has no designated funding stream for comprehensive sex education in schools.
