Details:

  • Description:
    Strong African American Families – Teen (SAAF-T) is a family-centered, group-level intervention delivered to adolescents and their caregivers. The intervention addresses multiple adolescent problem behaviors—including risky sex, substance use and conduct problems—using family skills training. Each SAAF-T intervention meeting consists of separate, concurrent training sessions for caregivers and adolescents followed by a joint session during which families practice together the skills they learned separately. The sexual health unit focuses on preventing unprotected sexual intercourse and promoting condom self-efficacy. Adolescent sessions include general sexual health information and skills for abstaining sexual activity, while caregiver sessions address communication about risk behavior and common caregiver misgivings regarding condom education, including the concern that teaching condom skills may encourage sexual activity. After the sexual health unit, adolescents, with their caregiver’s permission, participate in an optional condom skills module that includes condom use instructions and practice with a penis model.
