Abstract
Programs have made different levels of commitment to service integration or teen friendliness policies. Lessons learned through the integration of sexually transmitted disease (STD) and family planning services may assist efforts to better integrate HIV services for adolescents. Further work to elucidate the relationship between integration and teen friendliness is needed. Periodic reviews can ensure that recommended clinical guidelines, specifically annual risk assessment, are being met, as well as identifying achievable next steps to improve adolescent sexual and reproductive health service delivery.
