These changes are long overdue and are in line with the spirit and letter of the TPPI mission: to prevent teen pregnancy in North Carolina.<br /><br />Please take the time to write a letter stating why you think this rule change is important, necessary and needed right now. Please send these letters to:<br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Chris G.
