NAACP & Emmanuel UCC Present STD Education & Prevention Program

On Monday, June 5 at 7 pm, local NAACP #5087, in partnership with Emmanuel UCC, hosts a free community event for families titled “STD Education & Prevention.”

Studies show that programs offering STD education & prevention benefit local communities and families by reducing the rate of sexual activity in teenagers, limiting risky behaviors and pregnancy in adolescents, decreases the rate of sex-related violence, and lowers the rate of youth contracting HIV and other STDs.

Larry Moore, formerly of iMAD, presents a 75-minute program, sharing information that is beneficial for parents, guardians and youth to know, empowering them to have a thoughtful conversation about this timely topic.  Local medical and mental health organizations will have informational tables in the lobby.  

“STD Education & Prevention” takes place at Emmanuel UCC, 3115 Hope Street, Sebring at 7 pm.  Doors open at 6:30.  For further information, contact Rev. George Miller at gmiller@euccfl.org or 863-471-1999.
