“Your Health and the Law: A Guide for Teens”
Training Resources Overview
While the ACLU of Ohio will
provide a
speaker for your group regarding the information in our publication
Your Health and the Law: A Guide for Teens,
we also have created tools so that you can present the material to your
staff, group, or students. Below is a list of the resources you can
download, with a brief description of how to use them.
If you have questions about using these resources please contact us at
(216) 472-2200, or email
contact@acluohio.org.
Teen Health and the Law PowerPoint
Presentation
(We recommend saving the file to your computer. If you
do choose to open the file, select "Cancel" at the password prompt and
the file will open.)
This presentation contains 37 slides, including
notes for the presenter. If you use all of the slides and the
scenarios, you should plan for a 90-minute program. This allows time for
questions as well as discussion of the scenarios. For a shorter program,
select fewer slides to give a flavor for what is in the booklet, or to highlight
areas of particular importance to you. (i.e. confidentiality, pregnancy,
mental health).
Here are suggestions for a program using the slide show:
-
Order
enough guides for your audience
- Print out the notes pages for yourself
- Print handouts (3 or 6 slides per page) for your audience to
follow and take notes
- Print out the scenarios if you want to use them for small group
discussion (see below)
- Practice presenting the slides to get a sense of your timing
Note: The slide show does not cover every issue listed in the teen
health guide. This is pointed out near the end of the slides. You want
to encourage your audience to thoroughly read the guide.
Outline
For those who do not use the PowerPoint slide show, this is a training
outline for presenting an overview of the teen health guide. It does not
cover every issue. It incorporates using the scenarios.
Depending on questions and length of discussion of the scenarios, you
can expect a program length of 60 - 90 minutes.
Scenarios
– Questions with Answers
The scenarios are the boxed vignettes used throughout the booklet. This document includes all of the vignettes just as they appear
in the guide. Some (not all) of them are incorporated within both the
slide show and the presentation outline. You can print these out to use
as a reference for group discussion.
Scenarios –
Questions Only
This document includes all of the vignettes just as they appear in the
guide, but without the answers. You can print and cut out the scenarios
to distribute for group discussions. For example, divide your audience
into small groups of no more than 8. Give each group a couple of
scenarios to discuss, and then have them report to the entire group. You
may need to adapt this process, depending on the size of your audience
and the time available.
