Real Education and Access for Healthy Youth Act of 2025

This bill would establish federal grants to support comprehensive sex education and sexual health services for young people ages 10-29, with specific emphasis on making these programs evidence-informed, medically accurate, culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and inclusive of diverse identities. The bill authorizes $100 million annually for five years to fund programs in schools, colleges, and youth organizations that provide age-appropriate education on topics like anatomy, contraception, consent, healthy relationships, and STI prevention. It specifically requires programs to address racial and gender equity, serve underserved youth (including Black, Indigenous, Latine, LGBTQ+, and low-income youth), and avoid harmful practices like abstinence-only education. The bill repeals the "abstinence-only-until-marriage" program and redirects those funds to support the new comprehensive approach, requiring grantees to report on program impact including how many young people were served and how programs address racial and gender equity.
