A case study of teen pregnancy prevention in Albuquerque’s South Valley
Plain Talk, known as Hablando Claro in Spanish, is a community-based health initiative that encourages parents and other adults to have open, honest, and accurate discussions with young people about sex.
The success of Plain Talk lies in its simplicity. By increasing adult-teen communication about sex and increasing teens’ access to contraception, the program works to decrease unwanted pregnancies, STDs, and HIV/AIDS.
