Evaluation of the SafeSpace App Intervention

Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of SafeSpace Sexual Health App, an innovative sexual health promotion program focused on reducing sexual risk factors and promoting sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing among young people assigned female or intersex at birth, particularly Black and/or Latine youth, LGBTQ+ youth, youth in states with high teen birth rates and youth who live in rural communities. This study utilizes a two-arm randomized control trial design to measure impacts of receiving the SafeSpace Sexual Health program compared to receiving a similar-length control app program, SafeSpace General Health that focuses on general health. The investigators will ask participants to: * Keep the SafeSpace app downloaded to their device and visit the app regularly over the course of 10 weeks. * Provide contact information. * Receive and open app push notifications for 10 weeks (up to 3 per week). * Complete 3 online surveys over a year: baseline, short-term follow-up (10 weeks after baseline), and long-term follow up (9 months after short-term follow-up). * Receive occasional text messages from the study team.
