The program is delivered through two 4-hour small group sessions followed by four 15-minute booster phone calls over the following year.
The program is designed for African American females ages 15 to 21, who are sexually active, single, and trying to avoid pregnancy. The program was evaluated first with 18 to 19 year-old African American females, and more recently with younger females, who were 14 to 17 years old.
The program was developed to be delivered in a community-based or health clinic setting. The program was evaluated in a health clinic setting.
