About Sex Ed Alliance of New York City (SEANYC)
The Sex Ed Alliance of New York City (SEANYC) is a coalition comprised of students, parents, teachers, advocates, and community-based organizations that are working to improve comprehensive sexuality and health education in the New York City public schools.
SEANYC recognizes that sexuality education is integral to students’ overall health, well-being, decision-making and academic achievement. As such, we are working to ensure that age-appropriate and medically accurate sexuality and STI/HIV prevention education becomes a core component of the academic experience for all NYC public school students.
The Sex Ed Alliance of NYC calls for:
* Sex Ed for every grade taught every year in every school;
* Sex Ed that is age appropriate for the students;
* Sex Ed that is medically accurate and based on facts;
* Sex Ed that is culturally competent;
* Sex Ed that is inclusive of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth;
* Sex Ed that includes information about abstinence, contraception and STI and HIV/AIDS prevention;
* Sex Ed that is taught by well-trained teachers;
* Sex Ed that includes the entire school community (i.e., students, teachers, administrators, parents and caregivers, and the other important stakeholders of the individual school community);
* Sex Ed that includes linkages with health care centers and providers;
* Sex Ed that empowers New York City youth to make informed decisions to build healthy futures.
