actually
it is a big deal
Welcome to Beacon of light
changing lives for over 20 years
Beacon of Light equips teens and young adults with practical tools for navigating relationships and charting a successful course for their future. Our mission is to guide students toward healthy decision-making based on the most current medical and scientific data, with the goal of preventing both the physical and emotional consequences of having sex at a young age.
Teaching teens in
Public schools
7th-12th
&
Private entities
since 1998!
We give the facts, so students can make educated choices for their body and future.
In addition to our public school and community programs, we also have a full solution for California Healthy Youth Act (CYHA) AB-329.
We need a team of supporters to join us to make this a reality for Orange County and beyond. This is a big project, we need all hands on deck!
If you are interested in being a part of the solution please connect with us TODAY for all the information.
Everyday teens are fed the lie that sex is no big deal.
But... Statistics tell a different story
-
Half of the 26 million new cases of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD's/STI's) reported each year are among teens.
-
In the next 24 hours 2,795 teens will become pregnant.
-
94% of kids have seen pornography by age 14
All of these statistics are creating an epidemic of mental health issues leading to increased depression, abuse of drugs/alcohol, suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts.
Beacon of Light is combating the lies
One class, One student, ONE STORY at a time!
I did not like this presentation...I loved it! I really feel that this presentation puts us one step closer to having zero teen pregnancies in the future.
