National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (U.S.). Division of Adolescent and School Health.

Improving the health of youth requires working through settings in which youth can be reached easily . Each day, the nation’s schools provide an opportunity for more than 50 million students to learn about health and practice the skills that promote healthy behaviors . The CDC’s Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH) works with state, local, and territorial education agencies to reach young people through schools to help prevent HIV infection, other STDs, and teen pregnancy . DASH also works with organizations that serve youth who might not be reached adequately through schools, such as runaway and homeless youth and those in foster care or the juvenile justice system.
