Interview Spotlight
Each month, the Texas Campaign interviews people with lived experience with
regards to teen pregnancy or sex education in Texas to learn about their
experience and to help us incorporate youth voice into everything we do.
The impact of their first-hand experience helps inform our future work
across the state.
This month, we interviewed Bailee Smith, who shared her experience with the
sex education she received at her public school in Mabank, Texas.
