These case studies looks at the impact of targeted youth support (TYS) and TYS-related processes on teenage pregnancy rates.
They outline the challenges faced, the actions taken and the resulting
impact, and offers some implementation tips for others working with young
people at risk of becoming pregnant.
Its purpose is to give you a taste of the types of practice as they emerge; the
opportunity to find out more about issues relevant to you and your authority,
and to illustrate how TYS helps vulnerable young people, through early
identification, intervention and preventative work, to deal with their problems
before they escalate.
