It’s National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy
Today is the National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy. Via the National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy:
Hundreds of thousands of teens nationwide are expected to participate in the eighth annual National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy on
May 6, 2009. The purpose of the National Day is straightforward. Too many teens still think “It can’t happen to me.” The National Day helps teens understand that it can happen to them and that they need to think seriously about what they would do in the moment….
About the National Day. On the National Day and throughout May, teens nationwide will be asked to go to The National Campaign’s teen website—StayTeen.org —and take a short, scenario-based quiz (available in English and Spanish). The quiz challenges young people to consider what they would do in a number of sexual situations.
In 2008, more than 300,000 people took the National Day Quiz—up from 75,000 in 2002.
