Reaching Teens on Their Terms: Tailoring & Targeting Health Communications
Webinar Description
All teens aren’t the same. Some teens are more at risk than others for different risk behaviors. Knowing the attitudes, values, and lifestyles of teens at-risk allows marketing campaigns to more effectively reach and persuade the teens who need us the most. Over the past 20 years, VFHY has been accumulating the most advanced and comprehensive understanding of teen’s social identities and how they relate to health risk behaviors to implement targeted and tailored health communications. During this session, we will share VFHY’s comprehensive youth prevention strategy including Behind the Haze, a vaping prevention campaign, Unfazed, a marijuana prevention campaign, and Hustle & Strive, a multi-substance prevention campaign. This session will demonstrate how each campaign uses research-based insights to develop messages that appeal to teens most at risk for the targeted behavior and how those same insights are used to deliver messages equitably.
- Understand how teen attitudes, values, and lifestyles are associated with substance use
- Analyze how a deeper understanding of teen lifestyles can be used to develop authentic narratives to change behaviors
- Explore messaging for different substances and different teens
