Register for Healthy U: Promoting Sexual Health Among Juvenile Offenders.

Date: Tuesday, March 27, 2018
Time: 11am-12:15pm (Pacific Time)

Research has shown that youth living within the juvenile justice system have higher instances of unplanned teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. Unfortunately, few sexual health education resources are available to meet the needs of this special group.

The WestEd Justice & Prevention Research Center, as part of a multi-year study, partnered with the Oregon Youth Authority and app-creator Efficacity to create Healthy U, a tablet-based app.

Healthy U is designed to curb unplanned teen pregnancy by educating young males, ages 14–19, who are living in juvenile justice facilities. Through games, interactive scenarios, and short videos, the app provides information about puberty, sexual health, sexual consent, and healthy relationships.

Join us for this webinar to learn about the Healthy U app, including its development, implementation strategies, lessons learned, and current study findings.
