Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Our Family Our Future is a 'selective' behavioral prevention program, designed to address HIV/STI acquisition, sexual risk behavior, and depression among adolescents (ages 14-16) in communities with high HIV prevalence and from families where adolescents and parents already exhibit mild, potentially troublesome, depressive symptoms but do not reach the threshold for further screening for a significant clinical depressive disorder. Participants receive the intervention in a community setting, in a facilitated group format. The intervention is comprised of 3-hour sessions, held weekly for 3 consecutive weeks with an individual family meeting in the third or fourth week depending on family desires.
