CDC DASH Grant (Division of Adolescent and School Health)
  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH) has established an evidence-based approach schools can implement to help prevent HIV, STDs, and unintended pregnancy among adolescents. It includes delivering Sexual Health Education (SHE), increasing access to Sexual Health Services (SHS), and promoting Safe and Supportive Environments (SSE). Duval County Public Schools has been a recipient of the CDC DASH grant since 2013. The funding for the CDC DASH grant is expected to end at the conclusion of the 2023/2024 school year.

    The purpose of PS18-1807 CDC DASH grant is to improve the health and well-being of our local youth by working with education and health agencies, and other organizations to reduce HIV, STD, teen pregnancy, and related risk behaviors among middle and high school students.
