I am part of a team of evaluators looking
for "best practices" in for the prevention of unintended pregnancy
for culturally diverse youth. Do you have links or resources that I would
find helpful?
The Northeast
CAPT considers many risk and protective factors related to youth substance
abuse including sexual risk-taking and aggressive behavior. While we
may not have detailed information readily available regarding these
topics, we can point people to a series of resources including websites
and other materials to gather other information about a particular topic
area. In this case, we have identified a list of websites with information
about unintended pregnancy.
