The Best Practices Coalition organizes over 387 advocates, youthworkers
and direct service providers to make research-based best practices the
foundation of all youth work in DC. Members meet regularly to discuss
new trends and applications of best practices in their fields.
Within the Coalition are groups with special interests, such as the
role of boys and men in teen pregnancy prevention and preventing
subsequent pregnancies among pregnant and parenting teens.
