The We Think Twice Website is Now Available! Share New Tools to Help Teens put Their Futures First

We Think Twice is a youth-driven social media campaign that empowers teens to build knowledge and skills to form healthy relationships, set goals for the future, and feel confident in their decision not to have sex, use drugs, drink, smoke, or engage in other risky behaviors. The campaign, launched by the Family and Youth Services Bureau in partnership with the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health in 2019, has a new website with a variety of tools and tips for youth.
