Summary

This study tests whether a school-based program called READY to Stand can help prevent the commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC) among high school students. Over 3,200 teens in grades 9-12 from diverse urban schools will take part. The program includes videos, group discussions, and skill-building over six weeks. Researchers will measure if it reduces victimization and perpetration of CSEC and related violence, compared to students who do not receive the program.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
READY to Stand (RTS)© curriculum – a school-based behavioral program with videos, discussions, and skill-building activities
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could be widely used in U.S. schools to reduce sexual exploitation and violence among teens.
What could go wrong
This is a large trial but still early in testing. The program may not reduce exploitation as hoped, and results depend on students' honest self-reporting.
