Abstinence-based Programs
Around the world there has been a recent growth in abstinence-based sex education programs. As Christians, it is important to talk about the issues and give the reasons for abstinence and virginity. We can't just say the Bible says 'Don't do it' and not explain WHY!
Choices, Decisions, Outcomes This program was written by Jane Power in Geelong in 1994. Since its inception, this program has been presented to over 30,000 secondary school age students in the Geelong region alone. The program presents special sessions for each of years 7-10 that are interactive and engaging - they build the student's understanding of decisions and promote abstinence. Jane has also designed special programs that cover the topics of abortion and STDs. Jane is in the process of training teams of presenters all around Australia.
