As a result of a needs assessment study conducted among college students in rural Wisconsin, an interactive sex education program was developed and implemented to increase the knowledge of STDs among college students. This poster presentation will include components of the items discussed during the implementation phase of the program, and an analysis of the evaluation data.

Learning Objectives: Visitors to this poster session will gain an understanding of how to develop a fun sex education program for college students. Handouts will be available for those who might want to replicate this program in their colleges.
