Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Workshops take place with LGBTQ youth groups through schools, community-based organizations, or conferences. Each segment is led by adult facilitators or trained peer educators with adult facilitator support. These peer educators are from the Planned Parenthood Teen Council peer education program. Teen Council is a unique peer education program created in 1989 by PPGNHI. It is a strong and successful peer education program that trains high school youth to become experts in delivering inclusive, comprehensive sexual health education to their peers via group and community presentations. If trained peer educators are used, they implement the intervention with the guidance and oversight of an adult facilitator.
Participants in the control condition receive a benign intervention, which like IN•clued, meets in a group setting.
Once a site or group is defined, facilitators send implementation forms to Philliber. The evaluation team reviews the information and asks any needed questions which vary by group or site. The two groups cannot differ in any significant way (e.g., gender, SES, ethnicity, or special characteristic such as pregnant and parenting participants). All decisions about final eligibility are made by the research team. If two groups or sites are similar, they are approved. If they differ in a significant way, they are not eligible for the study.
Random assignment of the groups does not technically occur until the baseline administration of the survey is completed as participants can be both added and subtracted from the group list until the time of survey administration. One facilitator at each location is informed of the outcome of random assignment before or during the administration of the baseline survey. This is done so random assignment can occur immediately after surveys are conducted as this is a one-time workshop and participants do not give assent to participate until this time.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
The IN•clued program
The IN•clued program for youth consists of a three-hour in-person workshop for youth which includes lessons about safe sex practices and self-efficacy at healthcare centers, exam room roleplays, and a discussion on patient rights. Youth receive a Zine, or a magazine-style booklet, that they may take home. They also receive a list of local healthcare providers that highlights those that have participated in the IN•clued healthcare provider workshop or have had training on working with the LGBTQ population. Program youth can also receive text messages with health tips and reminders to visit a healthcare center.
The IN•clued program
The INclued program as previously described.
Control
The youth control group receives a 10-minute presentation and a list of local sexual healthcare providers, with no indication of which providers have been trained to be more LGBTQ friendly and accepting. This 10-minute presentation is a part of a longer three-hour activity unrelated to sexual health or accessing sexual healthcare. During the three-hour session, the list of approved activities includes but is not limited to:
* Films by, and for, LGBTQ youth about sexual orientation and gender identity;
* Community scavenger hunts;
* Poetry slams;
* Discussions about relationships; and
* Activities related to the appreciation of individuals' unique strengths.
