Introduction

Adolescent and youth reproductive health services should have distinctive features so that they will attract, meet the needs of, and retain young people as clients. Adolescent- and youth-friendly reproductive health (AYFRH) services are services that are accessible to and acceptable by young people. In this session you will learn about the characteristics of adolescent and youth-friendly services in terms of relevance to the providers, the health facility itself, and the programme design. You will also learn how you can interact with young people when consulting them on reproductive health (RH) issues.
