Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents final impact findings from a large-scale demonstration project and evaluation of the Teen Prevention Education Program (Teen PEP), an in-school, peer-to-peer sexual health promotion program that aims to reduce sexual risk behaviors and associated outcomes among high school students. Although teen pregnancy rates in the United States have decreased over the past 25 years (Martin et al. 2015), teenage pregnancy remains a serious concern. Teen parenting is linked to negative outcomes for both teen parents and their children. Teen mothers are less likely to graduate high school, have lower earnings, receive public assistance for longer periods, and are more likely to be single parents (Hoffman 2008; Perper et al. 2010). Children of teen mothers have worse educational, criminal, and health outcomes as well (Hoffman 2008). Furthermore, teen pregnancy is associated with high costs to the general public; in 2010, teen pregnancy and childbirth in the United States cost taxpayers more than $9.4 billion (National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy 2013). Teen PEP, developed and implemented by the Center for Supportive Schools (CSS) and HiTops, Inc., seeks to reduce rates of teen pregnancy and associated sexual risk behaviors through a combination of school-based, peer-led interactive workshops and school-wide initiatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook was written to encourage and assist school districts, schools, and community-based organizations to respond to the growing need for adolescent pregnancy prevention activities in the middle grades. It reflects the experiences of adolescent pregnancy prevention programs across the country, particularly those of the eight Urban Middle Schools Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Program projects. It describes many of the lessons learned in these projects about appealing to at-risk youth, overcoming the barriers to implementation, working collaboratively, and dealing with controversy. Part 1 looks at why adolescent pregnancy prevention should take place in the middle grades. Implications for risk prevention strategies are discussed. Changes are looked at for meeting developmental needs in middle grades education. Elements of an effective pregnancy prevention program are outlined, and collaboration is discussed as a means to better meet the needs of adolescents. Part 2 contains information about pregnancy prevention strategies, including family life and sexuality education, postponing sexual involvement, counseling, peer education, school-based clinics, service learning, mentoring, and multicomponent programs. Part 3 discusses program implementation and includes information about planning, handling controversy, promoting effective collaborations, staff development, funding, and evaluation. Appendices include a case study, a summary of evaluation of pregnancy prevention strategies, a summary of statistics on teenage sexuality and pregnancy, and a list of resource organizations. (LLL)
