Adolescent Health & Risk Prevention Analytics Unit
Addressing adolescent health risks through evidence-based prevention programs and youth-centered health services.
Unit Mission
The Adolescent Health & Risk Prevention Analytics Unit addresses the health risks facing adolescents in humanitarian and resource-limited settings — developing evidence-based prevention programs and youth-centered health services that address sexual and reproductive health, mental health, substance use, and violence. The unit applies adolescent medicine, behavioral health, and youth development to design interventions that are accessible, acceptable, and effective for young people navigating the compounded vulnerabilities of adolescence in crisis environments.
