Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH) has established an evidence-based approach schools can implement to help prevent HIV, STDs, and unintended pregnancy among adolescents. It includes delivering sexual health education, increasing access to sexual health services, and promoting safe and supportive environments. This info brief provides an overview of this approach and information to help educators, staff, and administrators as they implement HIV, STD, and unintended pregnancy prevention efforts in their schools.
Schools provide students with the opportunity to learn the importance of behaviors and skills needed to engage in a healthy lifestyle now and into adulthood. Learn more about CDC’s school-based approach to HIV and STD prevention at www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/programguidance.
