Three Generation Strategy (AdGen3)

Preparing teens for their family of the future.

AdGen3 encourages seeing teens as part of three generations, the family of origin, a teen in the present and preparing for their family of the future. All three of these components are critical for having a clear guide to healthy development through the changes of puberty and maturity.

Components of the Strategy

  • Based on current, reputable, and consistent research that recognizes the importance of parent/teen connectedness  
  • Equips health and community service providers to encourage parental engagement in clinical, school, faith, and community activities  
  • Provides resources and training to parents to build confidence in their ability to teach, share values, monitor, and support their youth  
  • Promotes the personal, societal, and relationship benefits of avoiding health risks such as drugs, violence, alcohol, tobacco, adolescent sex, bullying, and coercion  
  • Prepares youth, through family and community support, to develop vision and skills for future careers, adult friendships, marriage, and parenting
