Exploring the Sexually Transmitted Infection Testing Experiences of Young People through Creative Visual Mapping.

Background: Innovative solution-focused research with youth is needed to improve sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing among adolescents and young adults (AYA). We sought to identify moments that matter to AYA during the STI testing experience.

Methods: Five social design graduate students and five youth advisory council (YAC) members independently received STI testing and created journey maps documenting their experience.
