2 BACKGROUND & SIGNIFICANCE

3 Background & Significance  In 2010, chlamydia (CT) and gonorrhea (GC) rates among Philadelphia teens (15-19 years old) were 3 and 3.5 times the national average, respectively  Condom distribution interventions that increase availability and accessibility are effective in increasing condom use and reducing the incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs)  More effective when combined with other community-level interventions Philadelphia Department of Public Health, 2011; Charania et al., 2011; CDC, 2015.

4 Programming  2003 – Philadelphia High School Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Screening and Education Program is launched  Chlamydia/gonorrhea education and screening implemented in all public high schools in partnership with Philadelphia School District  Condoms distributed during educational presentations (starting 2007)  2011 – “Take Control Philly” initiative launched  Condom mailing program targeting teens  Adolescents ages 13-19 can order free condoms online  Social media presence and community events  2013 – Condom dispensers installed in high schools  Free condoms available in all public high schools and some charter and alternative schools through nurse’s offices and health resource centers

5 RESEARCH QUESTIONS & METHODS

6 Research Questions  What impact has condom distribution had on teen chlamydia and gonorrhea rates in Philadelphia?  What geographic differences exist within the city?  47 zip codes served by Philadelphia Department of Public Health  Chlamydia/gonorrhea rates  Condom distribution rates  Has condom distribution programming targeted high morbidity zip codes of the city?  What zip codes in Philadelphia require further intervention?

7 Methods  Calculated rates of teen chlamydia/gonorrhea by zip code for years 2010-2014  Rate = number of cases/1,000 teens  Calculated rates of condom distribution by zip code for years 2011-2014, individually and cumulatively  Rate = number of condoms/1,000 teens  Calculated percent change in chlamydia/gonorrhea rates between 2010 and 2014  Used ArcGIS© to map chlamydia/gonorrhea rates, condom distribution rates, and percent change by zip code  Visual comparison of maps to identify trends

17 Results  Philadelphia saw a 26.4% citywide decrease in the teen chlamydia/gonorrhea rate between 2010 and 2014  Rate changes within zip codes ranged from a 56.2% decrease to a 84.2% increase Increases occurred in less populated zip codes with small numbers of baseline cases  Visual comparison of maps reveals that chlamydia/gonorrhea rate decreases occurred in zip codes with high condom distribution (Northwest, Northeast, and Southeast)  Condom distribution efforts target high morbidity areas  More intervention needed in Southwest and North

18 DISCUSSION & IMPLICATIONS

19 Discussion & Implications  The STD Control Program at the Philadelphia Department of Public Health (PDPH) is making an impact on teen chlamydia and gonorrhea rates and we are part of it!  Programming links teens with PDPH services and resources High school program educates ~30,000 Philadelphia teens annually about STI prevention, risk reduction, and PDPH condom mailing service High school program identifies and treats hundreds of teen chlamydia and gonorrhea cases annually  Our contribution  This project helps demonstrate the impact of condom distribution programs and identify areas where further intervention is needed  We support condom distribution, STI screening, and education through our involvement with the high school program  We identified and addressed the language barrier among ESOL students by creating a one-pager that is translated into 8 languages
