HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS AND SENIORS SERVE AS PEER EDUCATORS WHO CONDUCT A SERIES OF STRUCTURED WORKSHOPS FOR GROUPS OF YOUNGER PEERS, FACULTY, AND FAMILY MEMBERS DESIGNED TO REDUCE RISK FACTORS FOR SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS, HIV, AND UNINTENDED PREGNANCY, AS WELL AS ENHANCING PROTECTIVE FACTORS AGAINST THESE ISSUES. THESE PEER EDUCATORS ARE SIMULTANEOUSLY ENROLLED IN A DAILY, FOR-CREDIT, YEAR-LONG LEADERSHIP COURSE TAUGHT BY SCHOOL FACULTY DURING REGULAR SCHOOL HOURS.
