The purpose of the program is to provide a private, confidential, easily-accessible location where youth can receive high-quality s*xual and reproductive health counseling, education, and/or services from a trained professional. Health Resource Centers expand access to healthcare by serving as an important conduit for linking adolescents and families to comprehensive quality healthcare services through established clinical partnerships.
The two main goals of the Health Resource Center Program are:
Increase access to quality s*xual and reproductive health education and counseling among adolescents ages 13-19 years in high-need communities to better inform their health decisions; and
Increase access to tools to decrease the risk of STDs, including HIV, and unintended pregnancy, among adolescents ages 13-19 years in high-need communities.”
-Access Matters
Counseling and Large Group Education Topics

Enhance partner communication skills
Build healthy relationships
Seek s*xual and reproductive health services as needed
