182. Collecting Evaluation Data Remotely for Middle School Aged Children: Lessons Learned

Unique challenges exist collecting evaluation data at multiple timepoints remotely from 10-15-year-old youth. Challenges include youth ’s limited access to personal email addresses or electronic devices (e.g., cell phones), and retaining youth participants for follow-up surveys. The purpose of this abstract is to describe barriers identified during an adolescent pregnancy prevention pilot study and present pragmatic strategies to improve remote, multi-point data collection and retention.
