Abstract:
Despite decreases over the last decade, teen birth rates in South Carolina are consistently higher than national rates. Increasing rates of sexual activity combined with declining contraceptive use rates create a dangerous situation for youth in South Carolina. When this study first began, the SC Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy (SC Campaign) reviewed the existing evidence-based pregnancy prevention programs for middle school. One program, called It's Your Game...Keep it Real (IYG), addresses all eight of South Carolina's health education standards and meets CHEA standards regarding mandated comprehensive reproductive health education in public schools. Consequently, the SC Campaign selected IYG for replication in selected middle schools throughout the state.
