Overview

Teen Health

Focus Area: Preventative Care

Description: Teenagers, especially in special populations, need to be informed about their rights to health care so that they can advocate for themselves as they move into adulthood. Pediatricians, rather than parents, are often at the forefront of communicating good health practices and available health care resources.

Program Details: The "Teen Health Bill of Rights" is a professionally written, designed and printed booklet that is a free guide detailing which health care services are available to teens to receive in confidence and at low cost. On its fourth printing, almost 200,000 copies have been distributed to pediatricians, hospitals, school-based health centers and other agencies throughout the Hudson Valley.

Geographic Scope: Hudson Valley region (NY)
