Grants to this Grantee
for support of the WISE Project to decrease teen pregnancy, STDs, and HIV
Education, Training and Research Associates (ETR) is a San Francisco Bay Area organization known nationally and internationally for its rigorous evaluation of teen pregnancy prevention programs. This grant would support the second phase of its Working to Institutionalize Sexuality Education (WISE) Project, designed to establish a system to institutionalize effective, comprehensive sexuality education within Bay Area schools. During the prior grant period, ETR worked with two Contra Costa County school districts to provide teacher training and capacity-building tools and to identify policies and practices that would ensure the districts’ institutionalization of effective sex education. In the next phase, building on lessons learned, ETR would develop a framework that could be replicated in other Bay Area school districts.
