The goal of this randomized trial is to learn if the Unstained intervention has a positive impact on the sexual health behaviors of sexually active youth between the ages of 14 and 22 years old who are at risk for or involved in the legal system. The primary research questions it aims to answer are: * Three months after being offered the intervention, does Unstained impact youth's receipt of sexually transmitted infection testing in the past four months? * Nine months after being offered the intervention, does Unstained impact youth's frequency of having vaginal and anal sex without condoms in the past four months? Researchers will compare participants randomized to receive Unstained (treatment group) to participants randomized to receive a control condition that contains no sexual or reproductive health information (control group). Participants randomized to the treatment group will be offered Unstained as a virtual, individual-based intervention delivered during three \~60 minute sessions over a 3-6 week period. Participants randomized to the control group will be offered a virtually delivered control condition.
