Our Service Area
The ATM Education leadership has 16 years of experience teaching
various abstinence 'til marriage programs in Ohio including reaching 55
schools in Columbus, OH and Franklin County helping direct the Ohio
Abstinence Campaign and building abstinence programs in 30 Ohio
counties. ATM materials and resources encourage healthy decision making
about avoiding risky behaviors such as alcohol, tobacco, illegal drugs,
and sexual activity for young people.
ATM Education serves 24 counties in north central and south central Ohio including: Adams,
Allen, Ashland, Athens, Crawford, Delaware, Gallia, Hardin, Highland,
Hocking, Jackson, Lawrence, Madison, Marion, Meigs, Morrow, Pike,
Richland, Ross, Seneca, Scioto, Union, Vinton and Wyandotte.
Most of these counties have high teen pregnancy rates, STD cases
and illegal drug and alcohol use. Abstinence 'til Marriage education
shows much promise. Survey results indicate a high level of interest
and desire to adapt to an abstinent lifestyle and prove that Abstinence
Education works.
House Bill 189 requires abstinence education be taught in all public schools in Ohio.
