This Topical Training examines new research to help Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) programs create more effective pathways to empower youth to overcome individual and societal barriers to healthy decision-making. Dr. Philip Hong shares how learning about the psychosocial development of youth relative to culture, environment, trauma, and their lived experiences can help them understand potential pathways to future opportunities. The 3-day training will integrate this new research with each of the SRAE required A-F topics.
