Strategies

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

Use television, radio, print, and social media efforts to increase awareness of underage drinking and its consequences

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

Provide sterile injection equipment and often other treatment and referral services to people who inject drugs; also called needle or syringe exchange programs and needle syringe programs

Increase voter turnout through get-out-the-vote campaigns and initiatives to make voting more convenient such as allowing early in-person voting, vote-by-mail, or expanding polling locations and hours
