Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* Research Question 1: Is participation in the El Camino goal setting program associated with greater abstinence (measured as never had sex, no recent sexual activity) relative to a comparison group that did not receive El Camino?
* Research Question 2: Is participation in El Camino associated with reduced unprotected sex (measured as sex without any method of contraception, sex without a condom) for the intervention group relative to the comparison group?
Researchers will compare those who received El Camino to a comparison group who received an alternative program that does not include sexual health components.
As part of the study, participants will be asked to:
* Attend approximately 11 hours of programming completed over 11 weeks
* Complete baseline, post-intervention, and 12-month follow-up surveys
* For select participants who received the El Camino program, participate in an optional focus group discussion

El Camino
Adolescents receiving the intervention/treatment - El Camino.
El Camino
El Camino is a goal-setting sexual health promotion program. El Camino's lessons and activities:
* Are anchored in sexual health promotion and goal-setting
* Incorporate a goal achievement model throughout the curriculum
* Are designed with a focus on the needs of Latino youth

The El Camino curriculum contains eleven 45-minute lessons and is divided into three sections, or arcs. The three arcs focus on goal setting, sexual and reproductive health, and healthy relationships.
Control
Adolescents receiving the control - alternative life skills program.
Life skills program
Youth enrolled in the control condition will receive one of several curricula focused on life skills or leadership, depending on the site and implementation period. These curricula include PODER, an 11-session curriculum that focuses on youth leadership development; Youth Encuentros, a psychoeducational curriculum focused on mental health; El Joven Noble, a youth leadership curriculum; and Courageous Queens, a socio-emotional and character strengthening curriculum.
