Recruiting you folks for a training this Saturday!

Hey everyone! Ready to dive deep into important conversations and become a leader in your community?

WHS is thrilled to invite young people aged 12-16 of all gender identities and gender non-conforming folx to sign up for our Peer Educator Prevention Training! This isn't your average classroom – it's a fun, exciting, and empowering learning atmosphere where you can enhance your knowledge about reproductive and sexual health.

In these challenging times, as we face so many attacks on our reproductive freedom, WHS remains unwavering on the frontlines of care for our communities. This means now, more than ever, we're dedicated to providing sexual education to our young people, empowering them with the knowledge and tools to make the best decisions for themselves.

Our training provides comprehensive, real-world information on topics like:

WHS clinic services and how to access them

Pregnancy, birth control, and abortion

STI/HIV testing, treatment, and prevention

And so much more!

We tackle these subjects through interactive activities and group participation in a non-judgmental, compassionate, and confidential environment. Our goal is to remove shame and stigma by having real conversations about reproductive and sexual health.

Last week, the California Legislature passed a budget bill that includes $15 million to backfill the loss of Title X federal funding. Now, we must call on Governor Newsom to support backfill in the final state budget — which will be finalized in the coming days!

We need collective action NOW to

For over 50 years, Title X has been a lifeline to communities across California — providing access to birth control, STI testing and treatment, cancer screenings, and more.

But for over 2.5 months, 350 health centers across California have not received any Title X federal funding due to HHS unjustly withholding California’s Title X award.

We cannot allow this key part of our health care infrastructure to disappear.

Here are two easy ways you can help TODAY:

1️⃣ Call Governor Newsom’s office and urge him to protect Title X in the state budget. 1(916) 445-2814 all script below!

2️⃣ Send a message to Governor Newsom https://secure.everyaction.com/4eRrUPLRP0OXxbNzh0hf0Q2

Let’s use our power to protect access to sexual + reproductive health care in California 💪💥
