This project evaluates the effectiveness of Get Real: Comprehensive Sex Education That Works, a comprehensive sex education program for high school students. For this project, WCW partnered with Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts as the program developer and Planned Parenthood of Greater Ohio, which implemented Get Real in Cleveland, Ohio public high schools. Grossman and her colleague continue to collect and analyze data to assess the effectiveness of Get Real in delaying and reducing high school students’ sexual risk behaviors using a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT), which is the gold standard for effectiveness research.
