I get to work for the the Texas Freedom Network, an amazing nonprofit organization that advocates for religious freedom, strong public schools, and civil liberties. We work to offer a mainstream voice to counter the powerful religious right in Texas politics. One of our big issues right now is working towards comprehensive sex education in Texas, a battle that we know is tough. To help us achieve responsible, medically accurate, and peer reviewed sex ed to public schools, we're bringing out the big dogs: student chapters at Texas universitities!
At the University of Texas at Austin TFN Student Chapter that I am part of we have some great events coming up this semester:
+ Rock Texas Forward, a free rock concert and progressive student organization fair
+ Free screening of Let's Talk About Sex with a faciliated discussion afterwards
+ Petition drive with free condoms on campus for Valentine's Day
+ It's Your Future, Speak Up for Sex Ed, an advocacy training day on campus
+ A youth lobby day at the Texas capitol!
We recently made a YouTube video about our student chapters and the important advocacy work that we do, check it out and let us know what you think!
