Seventeen
magazine and the Kaiser Family Foundation recently announced the launch of Sex Smarts, an ongoing public information partnership designed to provide young people with information and resources on sexual health issues. The campaign addresses a range of topics from decision making about sex, including how to say no to intercourse, to the real facts on HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Under the partnership, the Foundation and Seventeen periodically survey teens about their knowledge and attitudes about sex and sexual health. These nationally-representative survey snapshots shed light on the issues facing teens today and their information needs. The campaign also includes special articles in the magazine, an online monthly column on their Web site (www.seventeen.com) and other consumer education materials.
