Teen Pregnancy Prevention Campaign

On google I have found a teen pregnancy prevention campaign. What they do is exclusively work to prevent teen pregnancy in America. They plan to reduce it by one third over the next decade. They have reached there goal and are now on their second decade. There are however some problems that get in the way of their goals. Here are some of the problems: about one third of Americas teens get pregnant by the age of twenty, the rate in the United states are still the highest among other countries. There is evidence according to the site that the progress is slowing. Studies show that in thirteen states the rate has increased between 2003 and 2004. Some groups such as the large growing Latino population, rates of teen pregnancy and birth are far above the national average and are declining far more slowly than the overall rates. This means there is a lot of work to do for this campaign.
Even though teens have been making progress, parents have not. About half of pregnancies are unplanned. Unplanned pregnancies are very costly and unfortunate for many people. Another major consequence would be abortion. Many people may have strong feelings about this, but also have some reasoning when it comes to young people having to face this challenge. They still plan to expand their mission, to prevent teen pregnancies and reduce the number of unplanned pregnancies in the U.S. among adults especially where a large amount of the teen pregnancies occur.
