In this unit, you examined the role of community education as it relates to child abuse and neglect, teen pregnancy, and substance use among youth.
Please respond to the following questions:
- Do you believe that enough time has been devoted to providing community education related to child abuse, teen pregnancy, and substance use among youth? Why or why not?
- If you were approached by a pregnant teen or a teen who struggles with substance abuse in your community, would there be a specific agency you could direct them to? If yes, please share the name of the agency. If no, how does this reality make you feel?
- If you were to refer a teen for assistance, would an agency that serves teens and adults be sufficient, or would you prefer an agency dedicated to supporting youth? Please explain your reasoning.
