Study Groups

Manhood 2.0
Manhood 2.0 is a group-level intervention, delivered in 7 sessions over 13 hours, and is based on social cognitive theory, social norm theory, theory of gender and power, and the theory of reasoned action. Sessions were delivered twice a week, for approximately 3.5 weeks. For the final session, participants received one hour of content and were administered the immediate post-intervention survey. The intervention takes a holistic, gender-transformative approach, includes reproductive health knowledge, healthy relationships, altering gender norms and stereotypes which drive reproductive health behavior, and explicit and proactive support of female partner contraceptive use. Activities are designed to engage young men in critical reflection and dialogue about gender norms, and then apply these discussions to a range of key issues including intimate relationships, gender-based violence, substance abuse, STIs, and early pregnancy.
Manhood 2.0
Manhood 2.0 engages young men in questioning, challenging, and transforming harmful gender norms, with the goal of reducing intimate partner and sexual violence and unintended teen pregnancy. Manhood 2.0 is a male-only group-level intervention, based on social cognitive theory, social norm theory, theory of gender and power, and the theory of reasoned action. Activities include group discussion, role playing, knowledge sharing, and skill-building; their purpose is to challenge young men to think critically about social expectations and restrictive norms, engage in dialogue about these gender norms, and then assess the way rigid norms affect their attitudes and behaviors toward key issues, including intimate relationships, gender-based violence, substance abuse, sexually transmitted infections, and early pregnancy. Sessions are two hours long and occur once a week for seven weeks.
Post-High School Readiness
The Post-High School Readiness Program helped youth build skills around identifying colleges or programs of interest, completing applications for programs, writing resumes and increasing financial literacy. The post-high school readiness curriculum was delivered by LAYC staff members and the content was delivered twice a week, for approximately 3.5 weeks (as with the intervention). For the final session, participants did not receive content and were administered the immediate post-intervention survey.
Post-High School Readiness
Post-High School Readiness program helps young men prepare for life after high school. This includes helping them prepare resumes, learning how to apply to jobs or colleges, providing interview prep, and other life skills. It is a male-only group-level program that includes discussion, feedback, knowledge sharing, and skill-building; their purpose is to prepare young men for life after high school. Sessions are two hours long and occur once a week for seven weeks.
