Today’s New Teens (TNT)
Today’s New Teens (TNT) is a series of three workshops, co-facilitated by TASA members, that focuses on helping teens develop the insight, knowledge, and communication skills necessary to make sexually-responsible choices. We recruit patients from the Adolescent Health Clinic, with a targeted focus on high-risk patients referred by adolescent providers.
TNT is for patients, ages 13 through 18, to learn to delay sexual activity and to use safer-sex practices by focusing on decision-making about sex, pregnancy, and sexual responsibility.
TNT is based on the Information, Motivation, Behavior (IMB) model of HIV risk reduction (Fisher & Fisher, 1992: 2000) which states that if adolescents are well informed, personally and socially motivated, and have the objective skills and self-efficacy to perform the behavioral skills associated with risk reduction, then they can initiate and maintain patterns of HIV preventive behavior.
The workshops take place the first three Mondays of every month from 5 pm -7 pm at Children’s main hospital, 3.5 Research, Room 114. Participants who attend all three sessions can earn $30. All teens who participate in TNT are asked to complete pre- and post-tests to measure what you have learned. You can also sign-up for TNT here.
