Although Maine has a relatively low teen pregnancy rate compared to the rest of the United States, it's still important to get the facts and know your options when it comes to teen pregnancy. This is why Turner Memorial has teamed up with ACAP Health Services to give you the information you need to stay healthy and safe.
All month, you can visit Stay Teen and take part in the National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy Quiz to see where you stand when it comes to making important decisions regarding sex and pregnancy prevention.
Once you get your result, be sure to check out teen-created videos looking at what it means to "stay teen" and get the facts about abstinence and contraceptives.
You can also take their Relationship Reality Quiz right here:
The library will be hosting a Q&A Session with ACAP to handle all of your questions regarding sexual health, relationships, and pregnancy prevention on Tuesday May 19th from 4:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. Parents, caregivers, and educators can also attend a second session following the event from 5:30 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. to get the facts about teen pregnancy in the community. We'll be sure to have plenty of refreshments and other goodies on hand, so we look forward to seeing you there! Questions?
