    Summary

    The Changing the Map” grant program supports Indiana's goal of addressing barriers to the optimal health of adolescents and reducing the rate of teen pregnancy and STIs. Grantees must be able to replicate, with fidelity, all pre-identified programs. Replication of these are paramount to the success of this project.


    Grantees must be able to work alone or with partners to replicate the following three programs: Botvin LifeSkills Training High School and/or Transitions Program, Be Strong Families Parent and #WoWTalk Cafés, and the University of Michigan Adolescent Health Initiative's Adolescent Champion Model.

    • Botvin LifeSkills Training High School and Transitions Programs are an interactive set of courses focused on personal development and positive health. LifeSkill Training prepares youth to learn key strategies for healthy decision making to reduce risky behaviors by teaching three basic life skills: appropriate personal self-management skills, general social skills, and drug resistance skills.
    • Be Strong Families Parent Cafés utilizes a peer-to-peer support group approach allowing parents/guardians to have conversations centered around protective factors. #WoW(Words of Wisdom)Talk Cafés provide a similar process for youth and young adults to empower, inform and energize their journey to adulthood.
    • The University of Michigan Adolescent Health Initiative's Adolescent Champion Model drives health centers to become adolescent-centered medical homes. The Champion Model is a multi-faceted intervention to address a health center's environment, policies, and practices to ensure that all aspects of a visit to the health center are youth-centered.
