Factors that Influence Significant Attitude and Role Changes in Romantic Relationships

From the 1940s-1970s, Americans held consistent expectations of dating, transitioning into exclusive relationships, marrying straight out of high school, having several children, and maintaining a traditional family structure with a stay-at-home mother (Torr). However, subsequent generations have increasingly deviated from this norm and are likelier to engage in casual relationships while prioritizing themselves and their careers.

Making Relationship Programs More Inclusive For LGBTQ+ Youth:

Findings From the FRAMING Research Project


The number of young people in the United States who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning (LGBTQ+) has increased substantially in recent years. Although the topics addressed in healthy marriage and relationship education (HMRE) programs tend to be applicable to young people of any gender who are interested in both heterosexual and non-heterosexual relationships, few programs explicitly address these topics from the LGBTQ+ perspective.


Supported by the Department of Health and Human Services, and in partnership with Public Strategies, Mathematica explored how to make HMRE programs more inclusive for LGBTQ+ youth. The project team reviewed literature on relationship education and related programming for LGBTQ+ youth, led focus groups and interviews with HMRE program directors and staff, and interviewed HMRE program participants who self-identified as LGBTQ+.


Join us as we discuss common challenges HMRE programs face related to serving LGBTQ+ youth and promising strategies for making HMRE programs more inclusive for this population.

Objectives: Participants will be able to:

  • The common challenges HMRE programs for youth face related to serving LGBTQ+ populations.

  • Promising practices and approaches for making HMRE programs more inclusive and equitable for LGBTQ+ youth.

  • The gaps that remain in how to make HMRE programs more inclusive and equitable for LGBTQ+ youth.

Presenter: 

  • Dr. Julia Alamillo; Senior Researcher- Mathematica

  • Dr. Lourdes Fernandez; Survey Researcher- Mathematica

  • Lexi Ouellette; Research Analyst- Mathematica

Who should attend: HMRE grantees, healthy relationship facilitators, RHY, OPA, and FYSB grantees, community organizations serving LGBTQ+ youth, researchers who focus on LGBTQ+ youth, and all those who work with and care about LGBTQ+ youth.

Formative Research of Community-led Primary Prevention Approaches to Address Elevated Risk of Intimate Partner Violence & Sexual Violence

Estimated post date: September 3, 2024

Estimated application due date: December 2, 2024

The purpose of this NOFO is to build the evidence base for the prevention of intimate partner violence (IPV), including teen dating violence, and/or sexual violence (SV) in communities experiencing elevated risk of IPV/SV (i.e., people with shared social and structural conditions that create elevated risk). These communities include but are not limited to racial/ethnic minority groups, sexual and gender minority groups, and people with disabilities. This NOFO seeks proposals to support formative research of innovative primary prevention approaches (i.e., policies, programs, or practices) that address inequities in IPV and/or SV.

Rigorously Evaluating Primary Prevention Strategies for Intimate Partner Violence and Sexual Violence

Estimated Post Date: September 3, 2024

Estimated Application Due Date: December 2, 2024

This proposal aims at building the evidence base for the primary prevention of intimate partner violence, including teen dating violence, and/or sexual violence. This funding opportunity will support rigorous outcome evaluations of promising practice-based prevention approaches that are currently being implemented by state and/or local organizations that address intimate partner violence and/or sexual violence. This includes, but is not limited to, organizations that receive funding under CDC’s Rape Prevention and Education Program and CDC’s DELTA AHEAD program. By promising practice-based approaches we mean programs, policies, or practices that can demonstrate the following: (a) Evidence of implementation in the field for a minimum of two years; and (b) Collection of prior positive implementation-related outcomes (e.g., data demonstrating reach, fidelity, availability, and/or acceptability of the approach) and/or collection of outcome monitoring data before and after implementing the approach that demonstrate positive changes in relevant outcomes. Research on promising practice-based prevention approaches will evaluate the effectiveness of prevention approaches that already have traction within the field but have not been rigorously evaluated.
