On June 3, 2009, ACLU-NC asked Sonoma County schools to comply with California law by replacing abstinence-only sex education with comprehensive curricula that teach about condoms and contraception, as well as abstinence. “California law requires that sex education be based in public health science, not ideology,” said ACLU attorney Margaret Crosby. The curriculum in question, called Free To Be, exaggerates the failure rate of condoms, and suggests that sexual activity outside of marriage inevitably has negative consequences.
