Supporting young people’s mental and sexual health in Greater Boston

During the last year of funding for a sexual health program for Black and Brown young adults (18-25 years old) in Boston, the program team at Action for Boston Community Development (ABCD) - Health Services contracted MXM Research Group to conduct an evaluation. The goals of the learning partnership were to: 1) better understand young people’s health behaviors, as well as needs and gaps in sexual and mental services for young people; 2) better understand facilitators and barriers to accessing health information and services; and 3) identify opportunities to improve programs and to better serve young people.
