"the New Gold Standard for Sexuality Education in Public Schools K-12"

2012-01-10T14:44:00.000-08:00

This is really something, just released and good reading for anyone involved in Sex Education in Public Schools. We are sure you will have an opinion about the contents. We think publications like this help make Safer-Sex education more effective and consistent. There are a lot of opinions out there about how to build effective sexuality education programs that result in long term reduced STI and HIV infection rates. This subject gets especially controversial when dealing with K-12 age group. Whether you agree with the contents of this publication or not, we think developed guidance standards are a step in the right direction to further the process. Take a look and you be your own judge:

National Sexuality Education Standards

The goal of the National Sexuality Education Standards: Core Content and Skills, K–12 is
to provide clear, consistent and straightforward guidance on the essential minimum, core content for sexuality education that is age-appropriate for students in grades K–12.

USCA Exhibit # 514 & 516

Chicago, November 10 -12, 2011

USCA Press Reports:

2011 USCA Theme
This year's conference theme is "Make Change Real: Unite. Speak. Act." It is meant to express the crossroads in which our movement finds itself. The implementation of policies like the Affordable Care Act and the National HIV/AIDS Strategy have put us on a path to increase access to care, reduce infections and mitigate health disparities. At the same time, new biomedical interventions such as treatment as prevention and pre-exposure prophylaxis offer powerful new prevention tools. But the difficult fiscal climate has put pressure on Washington and state legislators to reduce spending, threatening to undermine this progress.

2011 USCA Target Populations: Gay Men
The target population of the 2011 USCA is gay men and other men who have sex with men (MSM). The need to address the impact of HIV/AIDS on gay men -- and particularly gay men of color -- has never been greater. New estimates released by the CDC highlight the continued disproportionate impact HIV has had on this population. The three segments of the U.S. population with the highest number of infections in 2009 were White, African American and Latino gay men respectively. This was the first year that infections among Latino gay men outpaced African American women. Perhaps most alarming, between 2006 and 2009, infections among young black gay men spiked 43 percent.
