dc.descriptionGirls face unique developmental challenges in childhood and adolescence. Compared to boys, girls tend to report more mental health problems1, and they are susceptible to reproductive health risks, such as unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease2. While a number of evidence-based programs have been found to be effective at reducing risk factors for children and adolescents, many programs have differential impacts for girls and boys.
