Teen Outreach Program

TOP® is a youth development and service learning program for youth ages 12 to 17 designed to reduce teenage pregnancy and increase school success by helping youth develop a positive self-image, life management skills, and realistic goals. The TOP® program model consists of three components implemented in school, after school, or in community settings over nine consecutive months: (1) weekly curriculum sessions, (2) community service learning (CSL), and (3) positive adult guidance and support. The TOP® Changing Scenes® curriculum is separated into four age- and stage-appropriate levels, which range from Level 1, typically for youth ages 12 or 13, to Level 4, typically for youth age 17.
