The website features:

• Articles written by youth
• Videos
• Virtual clinic tours
• Birth control and STD information
• Contests for youth, like the CFHC Condom Cover Art Contest
• Sex education glossary
• Title X Clinic locator
• Weekly blogs with tips and news about sexual health
• Links to websites and other resources for youth

Youth who have visited the site before will be excited to learn that Teensource now has an all new design! It features better navigation, easier access to birth control information and the clinic search tool, and convenient links to sexual health information.

Youth can also now sign up for the new text messaging service, Hookup, to get weekly text messages of sexual health information and life advice. The site will feature Hookup’s tip of the week and will give more in-depth information about each tip.

Teensource is a great resource with invaluable information for young adults. In fact, it has received the Golden Web Award and the World Wide Web Health Award.

If you’d like more information about Teensource or to find out about how you can promote the website in your community, contact Jason Lim at limj@cfhc.org or (510) 486-0412 x 2331.
