Real Education for Healthy Youth Act of 2016 This bill requires the Department of Health and Human Services to award competitive grants for: (1) comprehensive sex education for adolescents, (2) comprehensive sex education provided by institutions of higher education, and (3) training faculty and staff to teach comprehensive sex education to elementary and secondary school students. Grants cannot be used for health education programs that: deliberately withhold health-promoting or lifesaving information about sexuality-related topics, including HIV; are medically inaccurate or have been scientifically shown to be ineffective; promote gender stereotypes; are insensitive and unresponsive to the needs of survivors of sexual abuse or assault, sexually active youth, or lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning youth; or are inconsistent with the ethical imperatives of medicine and public health. This bill amends the Public Health Service Act to remove limitations on using AIDS prevention program funding for education or information that promotes certain sexual activity or intravenous substance abuse. This bill amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to allow funding to be used for contraceptive distribution in schools. This bill amends title V (Maternal and Child Health Services) of the Social Security Act to repeal the program for abstinence education. Unobligated funds for abstinence education for FY2016 and FY2017 are transferred and made available to carry out this Act.

On April 13, we were one of more than 50 national organizations to support U.S. Senator Cory Bookers (D-NJ) introduction of the Real Education for Healthy Youth Act, S. 2765, which lays out a comprehensive vision for sexual education policy in the United States. The bill was already introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives as H.R. 1706 by Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA). On April 13, we urged all members of Congress to support the Real Education for Healthy Youth Act, (S. 2765 / H.R. 1706). On May 16, we joined more than two dozen advocacy organizations in writing a letter to leadership of the House Committee on Appropriations to voice opposition to policy riders to the Fiscal Year 2017 appropriations bills that would undermine womens access to health care while purporting to protect religious liberty.
