The Changing Twenties
 In an effort to stimulate interest and understanding of the scope of the unplanned pregnancy problem in the United States, the National Campaign sponsored a forum in October 2007 focused on Being 20-Something in the 21st Century.

The Changing Twenties presents what William A. Galston, Ph.D.—National Campaign Board member, Brookings Institution scholar, and one of the nation’s preeminent social scientists—offered at the event on this most interesting issue.
