Free Teens

Free Teens

Free Teens USA is a non-profit organization founded in 1994, which promotes Free Teens Leadership Training, a program which promotes sexual abstinence before marriage and described as a "reality-based, abstinence-centered HIV/AIDS, STD, and pregnancy prevention program". It is used in 38 American states and in more than 70 countries and has been translated into 10 languages. Its curriculum was reviewed by the National Clearinghouse for Alcohol and Drug Information and found to be "medically accurate, in conformance with public health principles and appropriate for the intended audience."

Like most abstinence-based sexual education programs, Free Teens promotes the idea that sex before marriage carries the potential for deleterious consequences, both physical and emotional.

Established by Richard Panzer, a graduate of Yale University who has a doctorate from NYU in Educational Communication and Technology based in New Jersey.
