Civic Engagement: Likelihood of Teen Pregnancy |
|
|
|
Programs that combine a school-based life skills curriculum with a
community service component, as well as a combined community service and
mentoring program, resulted in lower rates of teen pregnancy. Students
participating in Teen Outreach were significantly less likely than their
peers in the control group to become pregnant during the year they were in
the program. Quantum Opportunities Program participants had fewer children
than youth in the control group at the one-year follow-up. Impacts were
particularly strong in one of the four sites.
