OverviewIn The Vulnerable Adolescent: Raising Awareness of the Social and Economic Consequences of Adolescent Pregnancy, Dr. Noel Holder, AA, provides an in-depth exploration of adolescent pregnancy. Drawing on decades of research and public service in Guyana, Dr. Holder explores the socioeconomic consequences of adolescent pregnancy through a Guyanese lens and provides insight into the cultural and religious factors that influence young mothers and their communities. The Vulnerable Adolescent discusses the psychosocial dilemmas of adolescent pregnancy, the impact of peer pressure, and the role of social norms and religion while highlighting the urgent need for pregnancy counseling and reintegration programs for adolescent mothers. Leveraging personal experience, comprehensive research, and studies conducted by some of the world's most respected public health organizations, Dr. Holder proposes a transformative program designed to initiate conversation and bring attention to this problem and ultimately facilitate pregnancy prevention. The CHANGE (challenge, holistic, awareness, negotiate, generate interest, and esteem) program offers an actionable pathway toward a new way of thinking for youths and their families. The Vulnerable Adolescent is a valuable resource for parents, educators, social workers, and faith practitioners alike-a powerful call to action for those committed to helping young souls truly thrive.
