The My Future, My Choice program trains high school teen leaders to help their younger peers in middle school learn how to say no to sexual involvement at an early age.

The five-part education series aims to provide middle school students with tools to resist social and peer pressure to become sexually involved before they are ready. Its message is simple and clear: It is better to wait to become sexually involved.

The risks of early sexual involvement.
How the media influence choices about sexual involvement.
Different types of relationships and why peer pressure is the most
difficult type of pressure to handle.
Learning assertiveness skills as a tool to resist social and peer pressure
to have sex.
