Summary
This study tests a program called 'Are You Ready?' for sexually active youth aged 14-22 who are involved with juvenile justice or child welfare. The program is a single 2.5-hour group session with a video and workbook discussions. Researchers will compare those who get the program to a control group, measuring STI testing, coping skills, and condomless sex at 3 and 9 months. The goal is to see if this brief intervention can improve sexual health and mental well-being.
