Adolescent Health Education Initiative
The Foundling’s Adolescent Health Education Initiative gives adolescents a place where they can become educated on health topics most relevant to them – including preventing pregnancy and improving sexual health.
Primarily serving the Bronx, the Adolescent Health Education Initiative utilizes two evidence-based models targeting young people ages 11-18. The program focuses on cultivating self-confidence, responsibility, and social skills—all of which are vitally important to reducing adolescent pregnancy and improving sexual health outcomes among young people in our community. The program also offers workshops serving parents, school administrators, and others to help them support these goals.
