Towards Meeting the Needs of Adolescents: An Assessment of Federally Funded Adolescent Health Programs and Initiatives Within the Department of Health and Human Services
The overall goal of this project was to better understand the types of youth programs available that may influence the health measures presented in the U.S. Chartbook where American adolescents fare differently--sometimes better, sometimes worse--than their counterparts in other countries. It provides a picture for policymakers and program managers and helps shape future efforts as they make the most effective use of resources in meeting the varied needs of adolescents, their families, and the communities in which they live.
