Strategies

Coordinate efforts to reduce risky sexual behavior among adolescents with work, vocational training, or sports

Notify partners exposed to an STI of their risk, encourage testing, and refer to services; also called contact tracing, or partner counseling and referral services

Assign homework or extra credit activities for physical education (PE) or health classes that require students to be physically active outside of school

Inform adolescents, young adults, and parents about HPV and its consequences, as well as the benefits of vaccination, via videos, printed materials, online content, or in-person efforts

Teach behavioral skills that can help individuals incorporate physical activity into their daily routines

Provide pregnant or parenting teens with services based upon their needs (e.g., counseling, connections to health care or social services, academic support, etc.) in school or community settings

Establish a relationship between an older adult and a child, adolescent, or college student through social interactions or a variety of educational and art activities

Increase access to LARCs through cost reduction, comprehensive birth control counseling, provider training, efforts to ensure availability at local clinics, etc.

Use traditional and digital media to disseminate information about safe sex

Provide messages that support physical activity to large and broad audiences using television, social media, radio, billboards, newspapers, and other print media
