description: These programs were designed specifically for in-person education, but we believe the activities and learning strategies can be adapted to continue to meet the program objectives—if sound virtual-learning strategies are used.

# Can I adapt an ETR evidence-based program to be delivered virtually with youth?

## These programs were designed specifically for in-person education, but we believe the activities and learning strategies can be adapted to continue to meet the program objectives—if sound virtual-learning strategies are used.

We encourage you to take your program to a virtual space, if allowed by your funder. ETR does not review or approve adaptations made by agencies that have purchased an ETR-distributed program. Any reviewing or approving of adaptations will need to be decided between you and your funder.

To support your adaptation process, check out ETR’s [Design for Learning](https://www.etr.org/design-4-learning/) Tip Sheets. For specific suggestions for *Making Proud Choices* (MPC) and *Reducing the Risk* (RTR), check out ETR’s free [Virtual Guidance Support Resource](https://pages.etr.org/ebi-support-resources?utm_term=safer-sex&utm_campaign=ebi-virtual-support&utm_medium=email&_hsmi=95413660&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-87-oHGRcYhRWKjiw1xJ-VS5Rkuo37znU8byAwOqfRwG0bgVw-Bkv7B6iRtdtOHZ8KK0o_n0_LZvwHVwXTSL5s8Y5YbEQ&utm_content=email-text&utm_source=hs_email&hsLang=en)s.
