no lnx newsweek

no secret that President Donald Trump has made inroads with religious voters through favored policies and many of his federal appointments. One of those appointees is poised to pay dividends for the conservative Christian right.

Valerie Huber, acting deputy assistant secretary for population affairs at the Health and Human Services Department (HHS) and a longtime pro-abstinence advocate, will have the final say on which groups receive federal family planning funds, Politico reported on Tuesday.

Before joining the Trump administration in June 2017, Huber was president and chief executive of Ascend, a professional association for people who promote abstinence education, formerly known as the National Abstinence Education Association. She is a champion of "sexual risk avoidance," another term for abstinence. Her appointment to HHS was celebrated by anti-choice groups from across the country.

Huber will have complete control over the $286 million Title X program, which funds family planning services, mostly for low-income women. In years past, as noted by Politico, Title X funding appropriations were decided by two HHS officials along with a regional health official. But the Trump administration has changed the process, making Huber the final arbiter of doling out the program's funds.

Supporters of Planned Parenthood dressed as characters from "The Handmaid's Tale" hold a rally as they protest the GOP health care bill outside the U.S. Capitol on June 27, 2017.

The shift is part and parcel of the Trump administration's professed preference for abstinence-only education. In May 2017, the administration asked for a $277 million investment in "extend[ing] abstinence education and the Personal Responsibility Education Program" between 2018 and 2024. Trump has also appointed other abstinence-only figures to senior positions at HHS.

For example, as pointed out by Teen Vogue, the administration's first choice for deputy assistant secretary for population affairs, Teresa Manning, has said in the past that she believes contraception "doesn't work." (Manning stepped down from her post earlier this year.) The administration also cut off more than $200 million in funding for 81 existing teen pregnancy prevention programs in July 2017.

Family planning organizations funded by Title X worry that Huber will choose to defund programs that do not advocate for abstinence.

"This is unprecedented and has dangerous implications," Kashif Syed, a senior analyst at thePlanned ParenthoodFederation of America, told Politico. "We're talking about a program that 4 million people rely on for basic reproductive health care—or in many cases, their only form of health care. Now is not the time to play politics with people's lives, but that's exactly what the Trump-Pence administration is doing."

Huber has shied away from the term abstinence, instead preferring to use "sexual risk avoidance" to express her views. She has expressed her belief that public health officials should make an effort to tell teens to delay having sex for an indefinite period of time.

"As public health experts and policymakers, we must normalize sexual delay more than we normalize teen sex, even with contraception," Huber said in the statement while at Ascend. "We believe youth deserve the best opportunity for a healthy future."

Multiple scientific studies and analyses have shown that abstinence-only education programs are ineffective at stopping the spread of sexually transmitted diseases among teenagers or preventing teens from engaging in sex before marriage.

early this month, the Trump administration appointed Valerie Huber, a well-known advocate for abstinence-only sex education, to serve as chief of staff at the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health at the Department of Health and Human Services. With Huber’s pick, and a proposed 2018 budget committing $277 million to abstinence-only education, the White House seemed to signal to its conservative base the scientifically dubious “Just Say No” brand of sex education was back, and now one of its staunchest believers would be helping to man the helm.

Huber’s boss hasn’t been appointed yet, but HHS’ acting assistant secretary for health, Don Wright, announced Huber’s hiring in an internal memo published by The Hill. In the email, Wright wrote that Huber’s “wealth of professional experience in the field of public policy will serve her well in this position.”

That experience is both limited, and includes internal scandal, The Daily Beast has learned.

Huber came to Washington by way of Ohio, having served as the abstinence education coordinator for her home state’s Department of Health from 2004 to 2007, before forming Ascend, an organization dedicated to abstinence education on a national level.

Huber became interested in public policy by way of being a mom, after her son came home reporting what he had learned in health class: Don’t have sex, but if you do, use a condom. To combat this shocking message, Huber founded a nonprofit organization, called REACH. “My vision was to make a difference in the life of one child—my son—but God had a much bigger vision,” she told an interviewer at CE National, an organization that describes their mission as helping churches be more effective on a national level.

In 2004, she left REACH to become the state abstinence coordinator at Ohio’s Department of Health where she oversaw the abstinence-only sex education programs for some 144,000 students.

During her time at Ohio’s DHS, Huber was criticized by AIDS-awareness groups in the state for holding conferences that excluded gays and lesbians with a “wait until marriage” message that refused to mention condoms, as well as using federal funding to purchase materials that contained “false, misleading, or distorted information” about contraception, abortion, and blurred the lines between religion and science—an assessment that Huber at the time called “an out of context and gross mischaracterization.”

Despite its uncertain effectiveness, Huber continued to oversee the abstinence program, and its some $23 million in state and federal funds. Then, in January 2006, she became the focus of an internal investigation and subsequent inquiry by the Ohio Ethics Commission, according to human resources documents retrieved by The Daily Beast. Internal auditors found that Huber had awarded a contract to a marketing company to develop a pro-abstinence media campaign for which she served as the statutory agent.

Internally, Huber was found guilty of “neglect of duty” and was ordered to serve a one-day working suspension. In a disciplinary letter, Ohio’s then-director of health, Dr. Nick Baird wrote that Huber’s actions “created an appearance of impropriety and a possible lack of confidence.”

Investigation documents recommended actions against Huber for violation of ethic laws be taken up by the Ohio Ethics Commission. Those inquiry records are not public.

Huber officially resigned from Ohio’s Department of Health in January of 2007, and quickly formed the National Abstinence Educators Association—a lobbying arm of the abstinence education industry, later known as Ascend, and rebranded abstinence education as “sexual risk avoidance.”

Ohio’s teen pregnancy rate remained steady during her state tenure—from 33.2 per 1,000 women ages 10-19 in 2004 to 34.9 per 1,000 in 2007. A national study ordered by Congress released shortly after Huber’s Ohio departure found students who were exposed to abstinence programs like Huber’s were just as likely to have sex as those who were not. More recent studies have found the same, with some concluding that abstinence education is actually positively correlated with teenage pregnancy and birth rates.

In 2012, when New York City schools began handing out the morning after pill to students in an aggressive push against teen pregnancy Huber called the effort “a terrible case once again of bigotry of low expectations.”

As president and CEO of Ascend, Huber told the AP in 2017 that sexual education programs which include information about contraceptives push teens toward sex,teaching in effect, “there’s really no red light as long as you do it right.”

“We don’t like the term ‘comprehensive sex education’ because it (projects) that it provides an even-handed approach that gives young people all the information to make healthy choices, when it fact it normalizes teen sex, and puts the emphasis on reducing the risk, rather than eliminating it,” Huber said. “You can’t blend the two (approaches) when you have underlying differences in foundation and the measure for success.”

Huber isn’t the first controversial figure to be posted at the Department of Health and Human Services. In April, Trump appointed Dr. Charmaine Yoest, an anti-abortion activist who acted as a surrogate during his campaign, as the assistant secretary of public affairs, a position that doesn’t require Senate confirmation. Yoest, a former president of Americans United for Life, an organization largely responsible for the state legislation that has restricted access to abortion in recent years, also kept a blog coauthored by her husband, titled “Reasoned Audacity,” where they espoused anti-LGBT views, including that transgender people were “crazy,” and referred to sexual reassignment surgery as “a joke.” Yoest scrubbed her blog of its anti-LGBT posts immediately following her appointment.

Research and credentials aside, Huber’s appointment has her poised to steer the national health agenda back toward abstinence education, and in her new position will affect oversight for 12 public health offices—including Women’s Health, Minority Health, HIV/AIDS and Infectious Disease Policy, and Adolescent Health.

The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health confirmed Huber’s appointment, but declined to comment on her record. A representative said Huber was on a family vacation.

Trump’s Pro-Abstinence HHS Appointee Fits an Unnerving ‘Pattern’

Jennifer Gerson Uffalussy·Contributing Writer

June 7, 2017

On Tuesday, the Trump administration quietly appointed Valerie J. Huber as chief of staff for the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Huber most recently served as president and CEO of Ascend, an organization focused on promoting abstinence-only education in schools. She was previously the abstinence-education coordinator for the state of Ohio, where she oversaw abstinence programs for more than 100,000 students per year.

Valerie J. Huber

In a memo to HHS staffers by Acting Health Secretary Doug Wright, he called Ascend “a Washington DC-based professional association that champions youth to make healthy life and relationship decisions.”

But abstinence-only education — or what many on the far right call “sexual risk avoidance” — is seen by many health advocates as ineffective, and frequently leave out certain demographics of young people that are especially vulnerable, including LGBTQ teens and pregnant and parenting teens.

Why Experts Are Concerned

Diana Thu-Thao Rhodes, the director of public policy for Advocates for Youth, says there is a pattern not only of Trump appointees being named to offices whose very mission they seem to oppose, but also one emerging among HHS appointees specifically who are united in their opposition to contraception.

“There is definitely in HHS and the Trump administration a focus on rolling back birth control coverage and access to contraception in general,” Thu-Thao Rhodes says. “And yet another pattern of this administration is that they don’t see contraception as a preventative service and integral to women’s health. There’s a pattern here of people being appointed to key positions by the administration who think this way.”

Echoes Leslie Kantor, PhD, MPH, and the Vice President of Education at Planned Parenthood Federation of America, “At Planned Parenthood, we are very concerned about an increasing number of anti-women’s health, anti-sex education, anti-science appointments in the Trump administration.”

.

Last month, Teresa Manning was tapped as deputy assistant secretary for population affairs at HHS, the role that oversees the administration of Title X, the national family planning program. In a 2003 interview, Manning stated on the record that she believes that contraception doesn’t work. Manning has also criticized the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists for recommending that prescribers offer advance prescriptions of the morning-after pill and has called emergency contraception “medically irresponsible” and “anti-family.”

Charmaine Yoest, Trump’s appointee to serve as assistant secretary of public affairs for HHS, is opposed to intrauterine devices (IUDs) as a form of birth control and has falsely said that they have “life-ending properties.” As noted in a memo circulated to Senate Democrats from the staff of the minority members of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee earlier this week, “IUDs do not work after implantation and therefore cannot end pregnancies. Additionally, recent data from the Guttmacher Institute found that unplanned pregnancies are at a 30-year low, largely a result of an increase in the use of long-acting reversible contraceptives like IUDs. The [Affordable Care Act] has been critical in increasing access to IUDs by removing cost barriers for women seeking contraceptive services.”

HHS Secretary Tom Price has also spoken on the record about his opposition to the contraception mandate of the ACA, telling a reporter in 2012 that “there’s not one woman” who does not have access to birth control — and thus does not need it guaranteed as part of her insurance coverage at no cost. Price is also vehemently outspoken on his opposition to federal funding for Planned Parenthood and his support of seeing the organization dropped as not just a Medicaid provider, but also a Title X provider. Planned Parenthood serves more than 40 percent of Title X patients, including teens, despite making up just 13 percent of all Title X health centers.

And Dr. Scott Gottlieb, Trump’s appointee to head the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), has repeatedly insisted in his own words that the contraception mandate of the ACA harms women’s health.

“These appointments have an enormous impact on the lives and future success of young people in our nation,” Ginny Ehrlich, CEO of The National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, tells Yahoo Beauty in a statement. “We hope these officials will exercise their responsibilities in a way that builds on past successes in reducing teen and unplanned pregnancy, rather than going backwards.”

Bipartisan Support for Comprehensive Sex Ed

According to the Guttmacher Institute, research “suggests that strategies that promote abstinence-only outside of marriage while withholding information about contraceptives do not stop or even delay sex. Moreover, abstinence-only programs can actually place young people at increased risk of pregnancy and STIs.”

“The point of sex education is that you want to get to young people before they become sexually active. You don’t want them to get critical information after the fact,” Kantor says. “Good sex ed lays the groundwork throughout childhood and the teen years so that when you’re in the situation when you’re in a relationship and navigating and negotiating having sex for the first time, you are well prepared and have all the information you need to protect yourself.”

Adds Kantor, “There was a very, very important change in the country in2010 when for the first time, rather than pouring money into abstinence-only-until-marriage programs, money started to be appropriated for evidence-based approaches — approaches found to help young people change their behavior either by delaying sex or by using condoms and contraception when having sex. We don’t want to see things roll backwards to the bad old days of abstinence-only-until-marriage education.”

January 2017 polling by the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy found that 85 percent of American adults — including 89 percent of Democrats and 75 percent of Republicans — favor maintaining federal funding for the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program and the Personal Responsibility Education Program, both of which utilize evidence-based, comprehensive sex education curricula.

Furthermore, the National Campaign’s polling found that 79 percent of Americans — including 81 percent of Democrats and 73 percent of Republicans — believe that teens should receive more information about abstinence and birth control and sexually transmitted infection protection.

President Trump reaffirms the importance of the United States rejoining the Geneva Consensus Declaration at the Faith and Freedom “Road to Majority 2023” conference in Washington, D.C.!

Supporting authentic gains for women and girls and defending the family as foundational to society should be a unifying priority of everyone, everywhere. At 36 nations strong, this coalition continues to stand boldly together to defend the delivery and advancement of real women’s health care against false narratives that conflate ideology with health.

“Under my leadership, the United States will also rejoin the Geneva consensus declaration created by my administration and signed by 36 nations to reject the globalist claim of an international right to abortion. This declaration affirms the family as the foundation of a good and great society and states that every human being has the inherent right to life. Joe Biden withdrew the United States from this historic declaration, his very first week.” - President Donald J. Trump …show more

One year ago, SCOTUS overturned Roe and this still rings true…

Let’s not allow the post-Roe discussion in America to obscure the fact that President Joe Biden and his administration are working diligently to enforce a pro-abortion line all over the world.Their efforts to characterize abortion as a ‘fundamental right’ trample upon the conscience of health providers, the sovereignty of nations, and the future of vulnerable women and unborn girls globally...With Roe now reversed in America, I hope that foreign nations will feel empowered to stand more firmly and confidently in their efforts to promote women’s health. Both domestically and abroad, we have a chance to build an alternative vision for women’s well-being. Every woman and girl has inherent dignity, no matter how old or how young. She deserves safety, justice, and respect. It’s time to act like it.” The Institute for Women's Health
