"For the enrollment of 1200 adolescents aged between 14 and 19 years seeking risk reduction strategies, it is essential that they possess a signed guardian consent form in addition to assent or personal consent forms where necessary based on age. Approval from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) may override this requirement. Participants should be open to sharing their encounters during sexual health & wellness education sessions and must not have significant intellectual, mental health, or cognitive impairments (e.g., psychosis, disorientation) as determined by screening upon program admission."
