Reproductive Health among Teenagers in Sierra Leone

We Yone Foundation and Georgina (Gina) Adatsi are carrying out this qualitative study on measuring the level of reproductive health knowledge that teenage boys and girls already have here in Freetown, Sierra Leone. Your child's participation in this study will help improve our understanding of gaps within reproductive health, how reproductive health is understood, understanding female/male anatomy, and the importance of family planning methods. It will also inform us on how gaps in knowledge lead to higher rates of teenage pregnancy. Researchers will use the results of this study to inform policy makers and actors working in the area of family planning and to reduce teenage pregnancy. We want to be sure that you understand the purpose of this research and your responsibilities in it before you decide if you want your child to participate in the study.

Black Immigrant Maternal Health in the US

Black women in the United States disproportionately experience adverse maternal health outcomes across income and education levels compared to women of other racial and ethnic groups. Still, there is limited knowledge about Black immigrants in the U.S. Black immigrants will make up about a third of the U.S. Black population by 2060.
