Reproductive Health of Young Adults Training Presentation Module
Contraception, Pregnancy and Sexually Transmitted Diseases

A training module on reproductive health issues affecting young adults has
been adapted for the World Wide Web and is now online. Produced by Family
Health International (FHI) in collaboration with the FOCUS on Young Adults
Project, it is designed for use in seminars, workshops and other training
events for physicians, nurses and medical students.

The Web version (at: http://www.fhi.org/en/ctu/adoltpm/main.html
<http://www.fhi.org/en/ctu/adoltpm/main.html> ) includes 83 color slides, a
narrative, a summary fact sheet, note-taking pages, and a questionnaire to
be completed after viewing the presentation on the Web.

Material in this training presentation module is divided into four sections.
Section I contains background information, including reproductive health
risks and consequences. Section II discusses what information and services
are needed by young adults. Section III provides clinical information on
contraceptive options for young adults. Section IV addresses STD prevention
and treatment issues for young adults.

"Reproductive Health of Young Adults" is part of FHI's training presentation
series on contraceptive technology and reproductive health. Ten additional
training modules are also available in English, French and Spanish. For more
information on the series, including a list of topics covered, and to order,
