Teaching Teens to Abstain

Just say no...to sex? A federal abstinence only initiative has trickled down to New Hampshire in thousand of dollars in funding. We'll ask what these programs teach and whether they work. Laura's guests are Jennifer Frizzel, public affairs director at Planned Parenthood of Northern New England and Brook Dupee, manager of the abstinence only program for the commissioner's office at the state department of Health and Human Services. We will also hear from 18 year old abstinence advocate Alexis Pennington of Claremont.

We open the show with Representative Ray Buckley who is a six-time New Hampshire Democratic Delegate, who will update us on how the Democratic National Convention is going.
