  Nimisha Srikanth Authors: Raquel Rose\, Sitara Weerakoon\, Shreya Jadhav
 \, Jasmine Abrams\, Ijeoma Opara Abstract Youth dependence on social medi
 a has led to concerns about the sexual nature of some content consumed by
  youth online. This study seeks to understand how sexual health content o
 n social media influences youth behaviors and perceptions on sexual healt
 h while factoring in peer dynamics.Twenty youth between the ages of 13-21
  years were recruited from youth serving organizations in an urban city i
 n New Jersey and interviewed from July to August 2024. The sample had a m
 ean age of 16 years\, 80% identified as male and 20% identified as female
 \, and 55% identified as Black/African American\, 25% identified as Afro-
 Latino\, and 15% identified as Hispanic/Latino. Additionally\, 30% of the
  sample were justice-involved. Rapid qualitative analysis was conducted t
 o identify three themes. First was “There is varied awareness of HIV and 
 STIs through social media”\, with youth having varied knowledge on HIV an
 d STIs due to lack of education and content. Second was “Privacy is an im
 portant value associated with sex”\, with youth affirming they prefer to 
 keep sexual content offline due to the risk of having content leaked on p
 ublic pages. Third was “Youth learned little positive lessons about sex f
 rom social media”\, with youth stating they learned few beneficial lesson
 s about sex and felt more sexual content on social media encourages youth
  to become more sexually active. Researchers and policymakers must collab
 orate with youth in developing and disseminating public health and legal 
 solutions for social media and sexual health.\n\nSpeakers:\nNimisha Srika
