Abstract
A teen peer sexuality education program, Project T.R.U.S.T. (Teaching Responsibility and Understanding of Sexuality and Teen Development) was developed and launched in 2000 by teens and staff at a sexual health care clinic in the United States. As part of a larger exploratory study, Project T.R.U.S.T. teen peer educators presented on communication and healthy and unhealthy dating relationships to a small audience of 11 Japanese teens in the US. This report includes a description of Project T.R.U.S.T. and the presentation made to the Japanese teens. It concludes with reflections on the potential usefulness of adapting a teen peer education program for use with Japanese teens.
