Adolescent Services Network

Our directory of services is now available online. 
 

G-CAPP hosts quarterly Adolescent Services Network (ASN) meetings for youth advocates and service providers to share information and coordinate policy efforts. The meetings focus on networking, strategic planning and brainstorming, and feature speakers and special presentations about adolescent services issues in Georgia.
 

Preventing teen pregnancy and promoting high school graduation go hand in hand. Pregnancy is a top reason for high school drop out among adolescent girls, and girls who drop out are more likely to become pregnant as teenagers.
