Abstract
This report details the sexual health of Minnesota’s young people. Overall, there is much to celebrate. Teen pregnancy and birth rates are at historic lows, with the teen pregnancy rate among 15-19 year olds having declined 63% from 1990 to 2013 and the teen birth rate having declined 54% in that same time period. In 2014, the adolescent gonorrhea rate declined and the chlamydia rate leveled off. Young people are to be commended for making wise and healthy choices about their sexual health. However, many challenges remain. The following Recommendations are Teenwise Minnesota’s response to the significant disparities and challenges outlined in this report.
