OCSB Disappoints Parents Again


Concerned Catholic Parents of Ottawa has received the Ottawa Catholic School Board's response to the delegation it brought on January 28th. The response can be read at this link.

The delegation asked the following questions:
1. Does Free the Children teach methods of artificial birth control to any of the people they serve?
2. Does Free the Children teach that condoms prevent STD and HIV transmission to any of the people they serve?
3. Does Free the Children's definition of reproductive rights and/or health, as mentioned in numerous Free the Children documents and online media, include access to artificial birth control?
The questions asked relate directly to Catholic moral teachings and the board's own recently revised policy on partnerships. Despite the relevance of the questions put forward, the board chose not to answer them. Why? We don't know.  (more...)
