Curricula:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2666 BART: Becoming a Responsible Teen This curriculum differs from other pregnancy prevention\/HIV curricula in that teens have an active role in developing all aspects of the curriculum. It relies on what is needed to change behavior. It is based on the knowledge that information and awareness are preconditions that set the stage for change and that people learn by seeing others model the desired behaviors and values. \u2666 Be Proud! Be Responsible! This curriculum has a unique approach that has proven to be successful in urban environments. One of its features is its strong sense-of-community approach. It focuses on the participants’ need to adapt responsible and safe sexual behaviors to prevent sexual transmission of HIV- not only for themselves, but for the sake of their families, sexual partners, children, and community. \u2666 Social Learning Theory and Self-Efficacy Theory provide the theoretical basis for both of these programs.<\/span><\/p>\n
