  • Sexual Health Education
  • Infectious Disease Prevention

Background:

  • Clinic-based programs aim to increase responsible sexual behavior.
  • Interventions include educational/counseling, condom distribution, and STD/HIV screening.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of different clinic-based programs in promoting responsible sexual behavior and reducing STDs/HIV.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinic-based educational/counseling programs.
  • Analysis of school clinic-based condom distribution programs.
  • Assessment of clinic-based STD/HIV screening programs.
