Abstract

This report details the sexual health of Minnesota’s youth. Teen pregnancy and birth rates are at historic lows. From 1990 to 2018, the teen pregnancy rate among 15 to 19-year-olds decreased nearly 76%. The teen birth rate decreased 72% in that same period. Young people should be commended for making wise and healthy choices about their sexual health. However, despite the improvements, many challenges remain. Sexually transmitted infections continue to increase and are at an all-time high. Disparities by geography and race/ethnicity persist. In response to the data outlined in this report, the following are recommendations from University of Minnesota Healthy Youth Development – Prevention Research Center (PRC).
