In
order to reduce the incidence of sexually transmitted infections and teenage
pregnancy, Teen C.I.T.Y. offers prevention education to young people aged
12 to 22. We have peer counselors, male and female, to educate teens on
reproductive health issues and services in a teen friendly environment.
These services are free of charge and confidential.
Health Education

Health education is a vital component to preventing teen pregnancy. Therefore EV conducts presentations at high schools and in community
settings. Presentations are free and available throughout the year.
HIV/STI Awareness
Comprehensive information about HIV and
common sexually transmitted diseases (STD) that affect young people is
provided. Studies show that only half of young people who are sexually
active use condoms to protect themselves against disease. A major reason is
embarrassment and lack of knowledge. Accordingly, we provide detailed
information about protection and answer questions about their use. While we
are sensitive not to use offensive language or otherwise loose the focus of
our discussion, we are direct.
Reproduction and Contraceptive Methods
Information on the reproductive system and
contraception options are presented.
If you have any
questions or would like to know more about our program please contact
Lourdes Landeros at (626) 919-5724 x2131 or at
llanderos@evchc.org.
