Don't understand this statement

Quoted right out of a test program description
" A sample (N ¼ 236) of sexual-minority youths was recruited via Facebook. Online, all youths completed pretests; youths randomly assigned to the intervention received a 3-session prevention program"
What in the world does the intervention here mean?
The word means someone intervening a specific matter or case of law suit, which in this case doesn't make any sense at all.

Any idea please?? THanks!!!!
