YSN Professor Helps Students Produce Teen Pregnancy Prevention Public Service Announcements
New Haven, CT — December 15, 2008
In her role as chair of New Haven Mayor John DeStefano's "Teen Pregnancy Prevention Council," YSN Associate Professor Alison Moriarty Daley worked with a group of students as they prepared video public service announcements for city-wide distribution.
New Haven public school students developed and produced all aspects of
the public service announcements, including writing, storyboards,
directing, filming, and editing of these clips. "I still get goose
bumps every time I see these video PSAs," commented Moriarty Daley.
""They are really well done and send a simple but important
message - 'It's My Responsibility, It's Your Responsibility.' "
In addition to the videos premiere before the Teen Pregnancy Prevention
Council, the clips have been shown to the high school principals, are
posted on YouTube (visit http://nursing.yale.edu/News/Features/teen_pregnancy.html), and will be shown at other upcoming
public and school events.
