prochoice_marylandFrom the RCRC (Religious Coaliation for Reproductive Choice):
Each year, 750,000 teens become pregnant in the U.S. These numbers represent a failing system, in large part because education, culture and public policies on sexuality are still based on conservative religious views that put judgment and shame ahead of the dignity, health and wellbeing of our nation’s youth. Consequently, when young women become pregnant, they are often stigmatized and written off. If we truly wish to support families, we must change this paradigm. Take action now to help pregnant and parenting students receive the support they need to succeed.
(Btw, you can remove the "I'm a person of faith" in the beginning of the message if you don't belong to a faith)
