Healthy Teen Network is the only national organization focused on a broad array of issues affecting adolescent health, specifically teen pregnancy prevention, teen pregnancy and teen parenting. Our vision is that all youth can make responsible decisions regarding their sexual, reproductive and parenting behaviors if given access to appropriate education and services. We support this vision by providing resources, education, capacity building training and technical support, and networking opportunities to our constituents. By working through our member network, we touch the lives of 500,000 young people every year.

We are particularly pleased to participate in the Young Men-at-Risk competition as young men desperately need our attention and support. The framework of this competition, addressing root causes and recognizing the importance of supporting young men, are principles we fully support. All youth deserve full access to the resources and supports they need to become healthy and engaged adults.
