Strategies

Prohibit criminal history questions on job applications and postpone background checks

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

Facilitate mediation between tenants and landlords to resolve conflict and prevent eviction

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

Offer flexible working arrangements, allowing the duties of a single full-time position to be covered by two part-time employees

Increase the lowest hourly, daily, or monthly compensation that employers may legally pay to workers

Provide employees with child care options at work; care may be provided free of charge, partially subsidized as part of an employee benefit package, or offered at market rates

Regulate short-term loans that must be repaid by a borrower’s next pay day via bans, caps on maximum interest rates and loan amounts, or require minimum loan terms and credit cost

Promote abstinence from sexual activity, generally only with mention of condoms and birth control to highlight failure rates
