We also developed materials such as an AHWG mission statement, a list of themes and informational needs, and documented strategies about pivoting the project during the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic.Lessons Learned/Conclusions: Engaging adults in youth-focused HIV prevention differs greatly to engaging youth themselves. Creating spaces to promote adolescent sexual Health requires trust building, breaking down sensitivities and stigma to, and flexibility to navigate both virtual and in-person spaces to do so.}, number={4}, journal={PROGRESS IN COMMUNITY HEALTH PARTNERSHIPS-RESEARCH EDUCATION AND ACTION}, author={Maragh-Bass, Allysha C. and LeMasters, Kate and Sanders, Tsharre and Harding, Caressa and Dearing, Aissa and Purcell, Randy and Mitchell, John T. and Stoner, Marie C. and Bhushan, Nivedita and Walker, Maleka and et al.}, year={2022}, pages={551–561} }
