Abstinence Education Program
In 2013, WPCC began teaching an abstinence-focused education program in all
Wilkes County 9th grade Health classes. We joined forces with Wilkes County schools to teach the state required abstinence portion of their Healthy Living Curriculum.
Each semester we schedule a 3-day program which focuses on character building, choices & consequences, setting goals & boundaries, healthy relationships, information on STD's & STI's, and avoiding teen pregnancy with an emphasis on choosing abstinence until marriage as a healthy choice. About a year later we introduced the program to our 7th graders in middle schools. It is our goal to not only see a reduction in teen pregnancy but also a decrease in the number of teens with STD's & STI's.
In 2023, Wilkes Pregnancy Care Center adopted a new curriculum called “Choosing the BEST” and was able to provide all schools with student manuals and leader guides to help implement the program and bring up-to-date, medically accurate information to students.
