Increasing Sexual and Reproductive Health Education Equity for Hispanics in Schools.
NASN School Nurse 2018 March
In the United States, the overall teen birth rate has been decreasing. In 1991, the teen birth rate was 61.8 births for every 1,000 teen females, but in 2014, the same overall rate decreased to 24.2 births for every 1,000 teen females. Unfortunately, this decrease has not reflected equally across all the races/ethnic groups. In 2014, the teen birth rate for Hispanics was 38 births per 1,000 teen females. The NASN is aware about the disparities on teen birth among racial/ethnical groups and has released a specific statement about the role of school nurses on the improvement of pregnancy outcomes. This article explains the cultural, linguistic, and educational barriers faced by Hispanic teens with limited English proficiency when preventing pregnancy and describes the development and implementation of a sexual and reproductive health education curriculum. The implications for school nurses will be discussed.
