Abstract
This report details the sexual health of Minnesota’s youth. From 1990 to 2020, the teen pregnancy rate among 15 to 19-year-olds decreased by 77%. The teen birth rate decreased by 75% in that same period. An overwhelming majority of Minnesota parents surveyed believe that young people deserve broad, developmentally appropriate, and medically accurate sexuality education in school. However, sexually transmitted infections remain a public health crisis, and disparities by geography, race and ethnicity persist. In response to the data outlined in this report, the following are recommendations from the University of Minnesota Healthy Youth Development – Prevention Research Center (PRC).
