“Changing the Future…A conversation about teen pregnancy and access to healthcare services” \u00c2\u00a0is happening on May 1st from 1-3 pm.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 It is open to teens 14-18 (although if there is a teen who you know would do a fantastic job contributing, and they are slightly older, they are also encouraged to attend.)<\/p>\n
The 2 hour meeting will consist in breaking the teens up into groups of 4-5, giving them discussion topics, paper and pens, and having them converse among themselves- and draw\/write it all down. They will then all come back together and discuss what they talked about.\u00c2\u00a0 It will be a good chance for them to meet other Anchorage teens. There will of course be time set aside for games and food!<\/p>\n
The information gained will be used to help provide better programs for teens.<\/p>\n
All participating teens will be given a $20 gift card.<\/p>\n
Teens who are usually not represented and do not have a chance to have their voice heard are especially encouraged to attend.<\/p>\n
If you know parenting teens, please let them know that childcare expenses will be reimbursed.<\/p>\n
