Sexual Risk Avoidance (SRA) is an approach that encourages individuals, particularly youth, to abstain from sexual activity until they are in a committed relationship or marriage. The focus is on promoting the benefits of waiting, such as emotional well-being and the prevention of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancies. SRA programs often provide education on healthy relationships, self-respect, and decision-making skills. They aim to empower individuals to make informed choices about their sexual health and to understand the potential consequences of sexual activity, emphasizing the value of personal and social responsibility.
