Outreach and Education
WV’s Family Planning Program provides outreach and education through the Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Initiative (APPI). Outreach and education are accomplished by:
- Working with public schools to provide student education through classroom presentations, parent education and reproductive health professional development for educators.
- Partnering with harm reduction clinics to provide family planning services, including education about contraceptive methods and healthy relationships.
- Collaboration with Corrections to provide education and awareness to participants of Day and Youth Report Centers, juvenile services and correction facilities. Promoting awareness about WV Family Planning options and accessibility after release and support in the communities people are returning to after incarceration.
- Assisting WV Family Planning service sites in achieving teen friendly clinics and increasing awareness of the needs of adolescent patients.
