Connect To Protect Program
Today's Young people face many health risks. Protecting the well being of adolescents and young adults has always come naturally to those closest to them. As a result, families, peers, community leaders, local organizations, service providers, and social and spiritual institutions all have a wealth of knowledge to share about caring for these age groups. Similarly, health researchers have worked for years to identify the most promising ways to prevent adolescent and young adult illness and disease. Independently, communities and researchers have made important contributions to protecting young people's health. Imagine the possibilities for creating and enacting powerful solutions with meaningful collaboration.
