Mission
The Tulsa Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy equips the community with strategies to reduce teen pregnancy for the purpose of improving the health and economic well-being for all.
Vision
All young people deserve to be educated, empowered, and supported by their community and to have a future full of hope and opportunities to reach their full potential.
At the Tulsa Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, we believe:
Education
All teens should have access to the most effective,
age-appropriate,
medically accurate health and sexuality education. This education should emphasize abstinence and provide information about contraception.
Collaboration
Systemic change on this issue can only be achieved through community
collaboration.
Empowerment
Young adults should be respected for their
unique traits and characteristics, and empowered to
take control of their own reproductive health and wellness.
Parental Influence
Parents should be equipped to be the
primary educators of their children about love, sex and relationships.
Prevention
The prevention of teen pregnancy is in the best interest of
adolescents, their
families and their
communities.
Potential
Teens should have the opportunity to reach their
full potential, without the additional challenge of early pregnancy.
Responsibility
Males and females
share responsibility in preventing teen pregnancy.
