Our research advances the literature by providing detailed recommendations
for the development of a teen pregnancy prevention program specific to the
wants and needs of urban and reservation Northern Plains AI youth. The
findings outlined in this article provide an in-depth look at how teen pregnancy
prevention efforts might tailor a program to fit the wants and needs
of these populations, while also outlining potential reasons for observed
differences in the recommendations offered between urban and reservation
sites and between females and males. Given that little is known about how
to best tailor a teen pregnancy program to fit the cultural needs of these
populations, this contribution adds to the literature by detailing the various
community-driven suggestions for how this might be done. It also highlights
the desirability of a culturally grounded teen pregnancy prevention program
among both urban and reservation-based Northern Plains AIs.
