Strategies

Provide education, information, counseling, and support for breastfeeding to women throughout pre- and post-natal care

Provide condoms free of charge or at a reduced cost in community and school-based settings

Provide at-risk expectant parents and families with young children with information, support, and training regarding child health, development, and care from prenatal stages through early childhood via trained home visitors

Pair youth at risk for delinquent behavior with mentors to develop relationships and spend time at regular meetings for an extended period; mentors have greater knowledge, skills, etc. than mentees
