What is an evidence-based program?
Evidence-based programs are interventions that have been shown through rigorous evaluation to change the sexual risk-taking behaviors of the participants. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office of Adolescent Health has assembled a list of programs that meet these criteria. Promising programs are not on this list, primarily because they have not completed a rigorous evaluation to prove effectiveness.
What is a promising program?
Though promising programs lack evidence of success, they may still be effective. Most of these programs have been shown to produce favorable results. However, because of other factors (a small sample size or the way data were collected in studies, for example), promising programs do not meet the strict criteria needed to be considered evidence-based. Keep in mind that a promising program can still have a positive effect on preventing teen pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, or sexual risk behaviors.
