N2  - PURPOSE: This pilot study was designed to determine the effectiveness of an intervention on sexual behavior among girls in juvenile detention.; METHODS: The pre/posttest model assessed for changes in knowledge, attitudes, and reported behaviors. This program merged three curricula to create the unique Young Women Get Real Program with nursing student program facilitators.; FINDINGS: Despite high levels of satisfaction with the program, the data related to the final sample (n = 35) failed to reveal significant changes in measured variables.; CONCLUSIONS: The results may inform nurses as they pursue interventions to promote responsible sexual behavior in selected populations. 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
