Adolescent Health & Youth Development
The Adolescent Health and Youth
Development Program—commonly known as "Plain Talk"—was formed to
empower the community to tackle the problems surrounding teen
pregnancy through intervention and education.
Program
Activities Include:
a series of eight evening sessions designed to help adults talk
openly with youth about puberty, dating, sex, pregnancy, health, and
decision-making.
creative and fun ways in which trained community residents can
educate each other about ways to help teens make healthy choices.
Parties are usually held in the home of the host or a convenient
location.
an eight-week program for 35 youth in the community ages 10 through
15 to address the issues of teen pregnancy and the spread of
sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV.
provided to male and female youth by the Fulton County Department of
Health and Wellness.
