History

In 1982 through the efforts of the United Way of Eastern Fairfield County and the Educational Foundation of America, the Council On Adolescent Pregnancy and the Catholic Coalition On Problem Pregnancy were brought together under the umbrella of the GBAPP, Inc (Greater Bridgeport Area Prevention Program). 

 

In 1992, GBAPP amended its bylaws and filed such changes to the Certificate of Incorporation with the Office of the Secretary of State. GBAPP became a single collaborative agency to service the six town greater Bridgeport region for adolescent sexuality-related issues, which includes prevention of adolescent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV/AIDS. Members of the Board of Directors represent the greater Bridgeport community. Several changes occurred as a result of the reorganization; our mission is more comprehensive, direct services are offered, and the two-track system is resolved.
