CHOP issues policy brief on reducing adolescent pregnancy
Policy Lab, a research center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia that bridges research, practice, and policy to improve children’s health and well-being, has published a policy brief that reviews the evidence related to adolescent pregnancy prevention and suggests practical, data-driven actions for reducing pregnancy during adolescence.
The publication was led by Christine Forke and Cynthia Mollen of PolicyLab, pediatric clinicians whose research focus on adolescent sexual health. PolicyLab’s Evidence to Action briefs highlight our research areas in the context of local and national policy issues to advance child health and well-being.
The brief is available here.
