Reaching Our Schools

PlanBe_ is a successful teen pregnancy prevention education program reaching high school students through partnerships with local schools and community partners. The program is designed to help at-risk youth in underserved communities understand what healthy choices are so that they can reach their full potential. The blank line is a call for teens to redirect their focus from sexual activity to positive activities that will enrich their lives and ultimately help to shape their future. Utilizing evidence-based interventions, we educate youth about the many risks that are associated with engaging in sexual activity such as teen pregnancies, STDs, mental and physical abuse; all of which can lead to dropping out of school & setbacks entering adulthood. Our mission is to enlighten students with information & motivate them with positive guidance to realize their true potential so they can reach their greatest capacity as responsible young adults. Be prepared for life. Be prepared for success.
