First String is an abstinence-education organization based in Newark, Ohio. First String advisers and educators strongly encourage teens and young adults to remain sexually abstinent—that is, not to have sex until they are married—through a variety of programs in the county and the region. Our emphasis on abstinence-only education is intended not only to protect teens and young adults physically, but also emotionally.

First String abstinence educators have spoken to students throughout the area at a variety of events and programs,

and First String maintains an excellent reputation with school administrators and teachers in Licking, Muskingum, Fairfield and Knox counties.

First String, which is affiliated with Heartbeats of Licking County, is a nonreligious, nonprofit organization that is supported, in part, by grants from local, state and federal government. To learn more about First String or its programs, contact us at info@firststring.org.
