How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Community Health Advocacy to Reduce Systemic Barriersmethodology: community_health_advocacyBy deploying community health advocates and certified navigators, we improve access to care and insurance enrollment because trusted, personalized guidance reduces complexity and builds client confidence in navigating health systems.
- Evidence-Based Youth Development with Curricular Fidelitymethodology: evidence-based youth educationBy implementing evidence-based sexual health and youth development curricula such as TOP and Making Proud Choices, we reduce teen pregnancy and STI risk because structured, proven programming builds adolescent confidence, responsibility, and healthy decision-making.
- Place-Based Equity Targeting for High-Needs Populationsmethodology: place-based equity targetingBy intentionally focusing services in communities with high concentrations of racial and ethnic minorities and rural poverty, we reduce disparities in maternal and youth health outcomes because targeted investment corrects for systemic under-resourcing.
- Reproductive Justice Framework for Autonomous Decision-Makingmethodology: reproductive_justice_frameworkBy grounding services in a reproductive justice framework, we enable individuals to make self-determined choices about childbearing and parenting because access, autonomy, and social support are treated as foundational to health equity.
- Strength-Based, Relationship-Centered Home Visitingmethodology: home-visiting_strength-basedBy delivering services through a relationship-based, culturally sensitive, and family-centered home visiting model, we improve parental capacity and child well-being because trust and mutual respect foster sustained engagement and empower families to build on their existing strengths.
