Reducing the Risk
Safer Sex is a clinic-based intervention intended to reduce the incidence of STIs and increase condom use among high-risk sexually active female adolescents and delivered in face-to-face individualized sessions by a female health educator. Reducing the Risk is a sexuality-education curriculum, most often delivered in a school setting that provides instruction and practice in the social skills needed to put into action what students learn about preventing pregnancy and reducing unsafe behavior in future high-risk situations. ¡Cuidate! is adapted from the Be Proud! Be Responsible! curriculum and culturally tailored for Latino youth. It aims to reduce HIV risk and unintended pregnancies by affecting sexual behaviors such as intercourse, number of partners, and condom use.
