I'll be talking about this story on the radio later this afternoon (5:05 p.m. in Edmonton, 5:20 pm in Calgary on CBC Radio 1) about the Alberta government's new approval process for sexual health education resources and outside presenters. #AbEd #AbLeg
Alberta vetting process limits sexual education materials for students, some experts say | CBC News
Some sexual health education experts, advocacy groups and teachers say new provincial approval requirements have left educators with inadequate options to teach Alberta’s health curriculum.

Last fall, a new vetting process took effect for sex education resources and presenters in Alberta.

Teachers and sex education experts say what has been approved is limited and has significant gaps. And they’re worried about the effects for students of watered-down sex ed #AbEd #AbLeg
