Each year DCAPP sponsors adolescent pregnancy prevention activities in May, September, and October. We produce a quarterly newsletter to highlight pregnancy prevention statistics and resources in Durham.

May is Teen Pregnancy Prevention Month. DCAPP sponsors a pregnancy prevention awareness workshop for teens and adults. Postitive alternative activities are also planned to encourage interaction between participants.

In September, as a kick off to "Let's Talk Month", DCAPP sponsors a Community Leaders Brunch. During this event DCAPP members and other interested in adolescent pregnancy prevention provide information / education to the community leaders and elected officials. Our goal is to keep them abreast of the efforts in the community to prevent and reduce adolescent pregnancy and the barriers to these efforts.

October is "Let's Talk Month". DCAPP sponsors and supports vaious community programs that encourage open communication between parents and their children regarding sexuality and other health related issues.
