Op-ed Published on Alternet!

By Laura Rosbrow | July 7th, 2010

We just found out that my teenage pregnancy piece from a while ago got picked up by Alternet, and is titled, “Why is Teenage Pregnancy Still on the Rise?“

Similar to before, we can gain more exposure and increase our chance to do this kind of advocacy with a bit of your help. Alternet counts clicks, emails, shares, comments and recommendations and we want this op-ed to get a lot of play, particularly because it makes the case for investing in after school and summer programs as a prevention strategy for teenage pregnancy. Some blogs and other news sites have already picked it up, and we want more to follow! So, please:

  1. Click on the link above and read it.
  2. Email it to friends who would be interested.
  3. Post it if you are a member of an online community.
  4. Consider posting a supportive comment or recommending one that’s already there.

Thanks everyone for your help in getting this out there!
