Helping Teens Stay Healthy and Safe: Health Care, Birth Control and Confidential Services

The Helping Teens Stay Healthy and Safe series of brochures offers guidance to health care providers, teens, and parents of teens about ways they can deliver, receive, and support adolescents' access to confidential contraceptive services.

For Providers - Discusses rationales for providing confidential contraceptive services to teens, support that exists in the policies of health care professional organizations, and ways that state and federal laws can be useful. (Brochure and full report available.)

For Teens - Teaches teens about confidential services and lets teens know how and what they can access on their own.

For Parents - Helps parents understand why supporting teens' access to confidential services is consistent with good parenting.
