No Apologies® is a character-based abstinence curriculum that helps
young people make wise choices regarding high-risk behaviour, including
sexual involvement before marriage. The curriculum deals with the value
of the individual, marriage, the family and the importance of keeping
ourselves pure for our future spouse.
The objectives of the No Apologies® curriculum are to help participants:
Understand the value of character and abstinence leading to healthy behaviour
Identify clearly the consequences associated with premarital sexual activity
Recognise the relationship between love + sex and the benefits of saving sex for marriage
Practice skills necessary to achieve the goal of abstinence from premarital sexual involvement
At the end of the workshop, participants are challenged to sign a
pledge card saying they choose to wait and save sex for marriage. They
are asked to defy popular culture by holding on to their virginity with
pride, and at the day of their wedding, to proudly present the signed
pledge card to their spouse, saying “I waited for you.”
