Plans for the APHA Annual Meeting in Boston, 2000
The Adolescent Task Force will meet on Monday from 8 - 9:30 a.m. Check your program for the meeting site. The meeting will include a dialogue on the topic: "What do we know about the impact of the youth development approach on adolescent reproductive health: what
strategies are being used and how are their results being
measured?".
We will have a dialogue on experiences and lessons learned on this subject in both the domestic and the international arenas.
We welcome potential participants willing to make brief 5-minute presentations to contact us with a brief summary of what they'd like to present. We will take up to 12 presentations, thus allowing time to also have a discussion on the topic. You can contact the Co-Chairs,
Geri Lynn Peak and Lindsay Stewart at:
geripeak@charm.net and lstewart@pathfind.org.
After August 15th, the Adolescent Task Force will have a website up: http://www.charm.net/~geripeak/atf/atf.html or find a link to the site at
