Adolescent Health and Youth Development Program

The purpose of the Adolescent Health and Youth Development (AHYD) program is to enhance the skills and improve the health status of the Southeast Health District’s adolescents (ages 10 through 19). This is accomplished through opportunities and programs developed in collaboration with families, communities, schools, and other public and private organizations throughout the district.

The AHYD program provides services and community-based support to help adolescents succeed as they move into adulthood by focusing on the “assets” of individual youth and their families. AHYD sponsored programs reinforce positive attitudes, as well as health behaviors and activities; and reduce risk-taking behaviors, such as violence, substance abuse, poor school performance and sexual activity before marriage. The program strives to provide all youth with the skills to be healthy, safe, educated, and employable.
