Adapting a Transgender/Nonbinary Undergraduate Sexual Assault Prevention Program

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This one-arm pilot trial adapts the IDEA3 online prevention approach for trans and nonbinary undergraduates. The study plans to enroll 18–25 year olds who are undergraduates, identify as trans or nonbinary, and are willing to participate with a peer partner and to be recorded during sessions via Zoom. It uses a videoconference-delivered program to assess safety, feasibility, and preliminary impact on victimization risk. The design aims to generate preliminary data to inform broader testing and potential scale-up in university settings.
