Teenage Pregnancy
Hampshire Teenage Pregnancy Partnership
The Hampshire Teenage Pregnancy Partnership vision is that by 2010, all young people in Hampshire will be well supported through education and high quality services so that they can make informed decisions about relationships, sex, parenthood and sexual health, whilst those who become teenage parents will be actively supported to reach their potential in society.
The objectives of the Hampshire Strategy fall under two headings:
- Prevention - including sex and relationships education, contraception and sexual health services and support for young women who think they may be pregnant
- Reintegration and Support - including appropriate childcare, housing, education, employment or training and individual support packages for teenage parents.
