Abstract
ABSTRACTSexuality health education is moving beyond the classroom, with technology expanding youth access to sexual health information. While text message services are increasingly being used to provide information, a peer education approach has yet to be incorporated. Results from this feasibility study support a sexual health textline (IOTAS), incorporating teens asking and answering questions. Our findings suggest IOTAS fills a gap for sexual health information, and the technology-based approach offers peer educators an opportunity to expand their knowledge of healthy sexual behaviors and educate an extended peer network. Further work to refine IOTAS will enable dissemination of the intervention model.
