- Navy and Marine Corps Classroom Lectures
"For Ladies Only". A group intervention adapted by SHARP from an intervention recommended by the CDC, "For Ladies Only" is intended as an optional, 1-hour educational offering for young female sailors. A presentation on symptoms, prevalence, and transmission of gonorrhea and Chlamydia and the incidence of unplanned pregnancies (UPP) is provided to increase perceived susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and UPP. The effectiveness of male condoms is discussed and proper condom use is demonstrated. Women are taught how to be assertive in discussing condom use with their partner, and how to deal with partner resistance to condoms. Through videos, presentations, role play, discussions and practice, women learn how to increase their sense of control over their sexual encounters, increase their STI and UPP awareness and perceived susceptibility, and increase self-efficacy for condom use.Order your SHARP Toolbox DVD
