Marshalling the human, program, and research resources of the Land Grant Universities to address the issues of adolescent pregnancy,
parenting, and sexuality in communities across the United States.
BAPPS is open to anyone interested in a research-based response to adolescent
pregnancy, parenting, and sexuality concerns. Through a listserve, website,
and conference participation, BAPPS disseminates research, resources,
curriculum development and evaluation tools in order to assist individual,
community, and state leaders in the areas of adolescent pregnancy, parenting
and sexuality (APPS). In addition, through collaboration with key federal,
state, and community stakeholders, cross-country partnerships have led to the
development of innovative educational and research projects on current APPS
issues.
BAPPS is a workgroup of the Children Youth
and Families Education and Research Network (CYFERnet). CYFERnet is a
national network of Land Grant University faculty and County Extension educators working to support
programs for children, youth and families funded by the Cooperative State
