USPIE Comprehensive Sexuality Education Position Statement
- Details
- By USPIE
A primary mission of United States Parents Involved in Education (USPIE) is to return control of education to parents and local communities. We are alarmed by the expanded use of inappropriate Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE), in K-12 public schools.

We urgently encourage parents to retake control of their children’s sex education.
