Please Send Your Suggestions for Reading List

Tell Them needs your help.

We’re putting together a series of suggested reading lists on a number of topics and we want your suggestions.

Please send us the books you have found helpful and insightful on teen pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, contraception, comprehensive sex education, and any other topics you think we would be interested in.

We’ll go through the suggested titles, make a couple of trips to the library, and (hopefully) come up with some pretty great reading lists.

Thanks for your help!
