Our programs include
Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Program (TPPP)
Sex is among the most common – and often one of
the scariest, though most important – issues that
parents worry about during their child’s development
between their preteen and teen years. As children enter
middle school, they will be exposed to new sensations
and experiences. Not only are there physiological
issues to address, but emotional and mental issues as
well.
With this new awareness of teenage sexuality come
new health risks that teens often don’t know about.
TTF team is well equipped to address any risks,
questions, or situations as they arise in your teen’s life.
TTF equips teens with a solid foundation of knowledge
and a clear attitude about sex that can help them deal with the issues when they’re confronted withthem.
TTF uses its new innovative approaches to prevent teen pregnancy as well HIV/AIDS and STDs.
Teens & Violence Prevention Program (TVPP)
Throughout their teenage years, children will
be interacting with a wide variety of people,
situations, and emotions. In many situations,
personal conflict between different individuals
may potentially result in violence and/or injury.
As a parent, guardian, or authoritative figure,
it is important to help your teen learn to deal
with their emotions without using violence.
Preventative methods may include learning nonviolent methods to control their anger or developing more efficient problem solving skills.
Demonstrating to your teen – through your words and actions – that violence is never an acceptable form of behavior is essential to your teen's growth into responsible, level-headed young adults.
However, many parents are too busy with their work and can hardly spend time with their children to teach them anything. So TTF designed innovative, efficient communication approaches to help teach them preventative methods.
Teenage Alcohol and Drug-abuse Prevention Program (TADAPP)
Before anyone ever takes a puff, or a hit,
or a drink, there is a decision made – a
healthy decision or an unhealthy one.
Trusting your teen to make a healthy
choice may sometimes be a difficult
expectation for them to successfully
meet.
Sometimes making a healthy choice is
hard for your teens because they are tired, stressed, angry, pressured, or infatuated by another person. However, nothing is more important than their health and safety.
Although most schools offer information about the dangers of smoking, drinking, or taking illegal drugs, it isn’t enough and that is no substitution for talking to your teen. Talking to an adult about these issues may often help teens know what to do or say when pressured into making responsible decisions regarding their safety.
TTF provides informative resources to help your teen gain an insight regarding dangerous and/or addicting substances that may put their health in jeopardy and how they can avoid that path.
TTF reinforce these resources with open discussions between teens themselves and counselors regarding these substances.
