Teen pregnancies and unplanned pregnancy among single young adults are epidemic in San Antonio and in Texas," said Dr. Janet Realini, president of Healthy Futures of Texas.

In the last 10 years the world's leading economic powers have driven important changes in international policy on illicit drug trafficking. They have set up and financed semi-formal or informal transnational groups to proactively implement policy on the ground. This is a reaction to the bureaucratic, formal mechanisms of the United Nations and its agencies, where policy is diluted by the need for consensus among 53 member states, plus various regional groupings of other countries.
