Teen Videofest, dubbed a model practice by the National Association of County and City Health Officials, engages youth to create short videos with strong health promotion messages. These videos are then utilized in settings such as local schools, youth-focused organizations and broadcast television to encourage positive behavior change among viewers.

Last year's project provided local youth with the opportunity to let their collective voices be heard on reproductive sexual  health issues. The videos provide a way to inform and educate BOTH youth and adults from the teen perspective.
