Abstract	In the spring of 1990 a project was undertaken in Canada to document the major concerns and perceptions of adolescent women; to supplement the words of adolescent women with brief summaries of current knowledge; to use the words of adolescent women and the additional knowledge gathered to provide information to young women on issues which are of concern to them through a series of booklets; to raise awareness regarding these women's concerns; to help teachers to deal with issues of concern to adolescent women; and to promote dialogue on issues of concern among adolescent women, among teachers, and between adolescent women and men and their teachers. Discussion groups (N=97) focused on identifying major concerns of adolescent women. Individual responses were received from 961 adolescent women, most of whom were ages 11-19. (Results of the project are presented in these areas: (1) world concerns, including politics, the environment, and global issues; (2) love and sexuality; (3) self-image, self-confidence, and self-esteem; (4) careers and future plans; (5) other relationships, including friends and family; (6) alcohol and drugs; (7) physical and sexual abuse; (8) the quality of education and school life; (9) balancing priorities; and (10) equal rights, discrimination, choices, and abilities as women. The appendixes provide participants' comments and a bibliography; appendix 3 is a detailed group discussion guide. (ABL)
