Abstract Synopsis
- The paper describes a human-centered design approach to understand unmet sexual health needs of youth of color in low-income and rural areas, using interviews and activities to gather insights.
- Participants expressed discomfort with school-based sexual health education, concerns over privacy and credibility of online resources, and preferred mobile apps for privacy reasons.
- Based on these insights, researchers developed the "Real Talk" mobile app, a story-based text message platform, to provide engaging sexual health information tailored to adolescents’ emotions and preferences.]
