PREP

Iowa’s Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) provides sexuality education to adolescents that is medically accurate, culturally and age-appropriate, and evidence-based and informed.

PREP is implemented with the goal of assisting youth to reduce their risk of unintended pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In addition to education on abstinence and contraceptive use, PREP also addresses other topics to prepare young people for a successful adulthood. Adult preparation subjects include healthy relationships, adolescent development, healthy life skills, parent-child communication, financial literacy, and educational and career success.

As a PREP contractor, American Home Finding Association implements the Teen Outreach Program (TOP) curriculum, an evidence-based and evidence-informed teen pregnancy prevention program. PREP is delivered to teens at the Accelerated Career Academy and the Ottumwa High School.
