Berkshire County looks to Alliance for teen pregnancy prevention guidance

April 28, 2011

The Berkshire Country have some of the more consistently high teen birth rates in Massachusetts. Together with Berkshire United Way, the Alliance is working to change that; our joint work was covered in The Berkshire Eagle:

Consuela Green of the Massachusetts Alliance on Teen Pregnancy presented the Berkshire County survey findings, which include the fact that children need parents and adults they can feel comfortable talking to about sex.

Not just the one talk,” Greene said. “It needs to be an ongoing conversation.”

Read the rest of County teen births remain high.
