Abstract: This study examined the basis for one hospital's decision to restructure its teen family planning clinical services. We examined results of surveys conducted from 1998 to 2003 with more than 2000 mostly African American eighth-grade boys, Most young males wanted to postpone sexual intercourse, but an even greater percentage were willing to use a method of protection. The hospital determined that it needed to give the same in-hospital clinical and counseling support to young males as it gives to young females.
