Abstract
In this issue of the Journal of Adolescent Health, Ethier et al provide yet more evidence of the effectiveness of school-based health centers (SBHCs) as a critical access point for preventive services to adolescents—a population long considered difficult to reach [1–5]. By comparing self-reported reproductive health care, contraceptive use, and screening of sexually transmitted infections among adolescents who had access to an SBHC against those without access, researchers found that SBHC access was associated with greater use of reproductive care and contraception among sexually experienced adolescent females [6].
