Teresa Tomeo is a Catholic talk show host and media consultant with more than 20 years of experience as a print and broadcast journalist.

• Abstinence Education: Assessing the Evidence. The Heritage Foundation, April 22, 2008. Today’s young people face strong peer pressure to engage in risky behavior and must navigate media and popular culture that endorse and even glamorize permissiveness and casual sex. Alarmingly, the government implicitly supports these messages by spending over $1 billion each year promoting contraception and safe-sex education—12 times what it spends on abstinence education.
