Long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods have the potential to significantly reduce unintended pregnancy among young people. However, misconceptions related to LARC methods and their use by adolescents has prevented young people from receiving adequate information about LARCs. In this training, facilitators use learner-centered, interactive techniques to discuss the rationale and research base for providing LARC information to young people.
