Abstract
Adolescence is often viewed as a period of development fraught with "problems" that need to be prevented. Problem-oriented health education often fails to serve the developmental needs of young people, thereby compromising program effectiveness. This article describes some important developmental tasks of adolescence from a wellness perspective. The effectiveness of many programs can be improved by a shift in focus from "problem prevention" to wellness promotion.
