Some California teenagers can receive a packet of 10 condoms and “personal lubricant” from a program co-sponsored by the state Department of Public Health and the California Family Health Council.
Launched on Valentine’s Day during “National Condom Week,” the Condom Access Project – CAP for short – is aimed at reducing the transmission of sexual diseases among 15-year-olds to 19-year-olds “by ensuring that California youth have access to free condoms year round,” the council says in a press release on its website.
Teens in Alameda, Kern, Sacramento, San Joaquin counties and parts of San Francisco — counties with high rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea among 15-year-olds to 19-year-olds – can go online and confidentially request a package of 10 condoms.
In addition to the condoms and the lubricant, the teens will also receive information about pregnancy prevention and sexual diseases.
The council also has established a website, TeenSource.org, where teenagers as young as 12 can sign up for condoms as well as get birth control advice and information about their privacy rights.

Isn’t it against the law for anyone of any age to engage in sex with a 15 year old?
I have no problem with this really...
If Cali wants to continue to spend money they don’t have, then I can think of many causes far worse than this one.
No if two minors under 15 have sex, I don’t believe that’s illegal. Come on this is Californication land.
As young as 12!
Thats not teenaged either.
pedophiles
Making statutory rape “safe” I guess?
Condom? Nah, we just call them “Obama Bags”.
I swear, I never thought I would see such a day.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have lost. It must be the end of the world.
I'm outraged.
wonder how many will sell them to penniless Georgetown students? They could make a fortune.
