Educational technologies are also highlighted because they raise awareness and provide care. Adolescents use them often because they are innovative in the group approach and attract attention. These are times that demand attention, as there are biopsychosocial changes, the will to live everything fast, intensely and, thus, are vulnerable to AIDS, abortion, chemical dependency, among other situations that affect the quality of life. Teens who participate in Catholic groups say they do not feel comfortable talking about sexuality with their parents because they feel ashamed. It is important to educate them, empower them, allow them to make self-criticisms, have a sense of social responsibility. The objective of this study is to validate a website about sexuality and prevention of STD/HIV/aids for adolescents of the Catholic Church. It is a methodological study, in which 112 adolescents between 10 and 19 years participated. The research was carried out in groups of young people of the Catholic Church of the city of Fortaleza/CE. For the data collection, a questionnaire with socio-demographic information was applied, and a questionnaire validated with questions about attributes interactivity, objectives, relevance and efficacy, and clarity. The data were analyzed using the following tests: exact binomial distribution with significance level of five percent, and maximum likelihood ratio. The female gender predominated (63,39%), the majority of participants were more than six months old in the youth group. Most of them attend high school, are single, and have accessed the website through their cell phone. They did not initiate sexual life (65,18%), and most of the parents (95,54%) are Catholics. The website was evaluated positively, since the attributes were, for the most part, considered adequate and partially adequate, highlighting the item clarity, where no participant considered it inappropriate. It is concluded, according to the evaluation, that the website is considered valid and reliable to empower adolescents about the issue of sexuality and prevention of STD/HIV/aids. Nurses play a fundamental role in health promotion and, through their knowledge, through the use of educational technologies, can transform the scenario of adolescent education.
