                     Evaluation of Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Approaches (PPA) and the Impact Evaluation of the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program Grantees: First Follow-up Data Collection—OMB No. OS-0990—NEW—Office of Adolescent Pregnancy Programs. *Abstract:*
                     The Office of Adolescent Health (OAH), Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is overseeing and coordinating adolescent pregnancy prevention evaluation efforts as part of the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Initiative. OAH is working collaboratively with the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) on adolescent pregnancy prevention evaluation activities. PPA is a random assignment evaluation which will expand available evidence on effective ways to reduce teen pregnancy. The evaluation will document and test a range of pregnancy prevention approaches in up to eight program sites. OAH, ACF, and ASPE are proposing first follow-up data collection activity as part of the PPA and TPP Impact evaluations. Respondents will be asked to answer carefully selected questions about risk and protective factors related to teen pregnancy, intermediate outcomes, and behavioral outcomes. OAH will jointly oversee with ASPE the Impact Evaluation of the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program Grantees (TPP Impact Evaluation). The TPP Impact Evaluation will be a random assignment evaluation which will determine whether program models funded as part of the OAH evidence-based Teen Pregnancy Prevention Initiative are effective at preventing teen pregnancy, reducing sexually transmitted infections, and/or impacting sexual risk behaviors. The findings from both evaluations will be of interest to the general public, to policy-makers, and to organizations interested in teen pregnancy prevention. Estimated Annualized Burden Table
