list of resources and accompanying tools for implementing evidence-based
adolescent health programs. The guide defines evidence-based programs,

programs. The resources in the guide are organized by health topics adapted
from the focus areas of the Healthy People 2020 Core Indicators for
Adolescent and Young Adult Health. Topics include healthy development,
unintentional injury, violence, mental health, substance use, sexual
health, obesity, physical activity, and tobacco. [Funded by the U.S.
