Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Evaluation of Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Approaches--
First Follow-up Data Collection.
    OMB No.: ICRAS: 0970-0360.
    Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACE), 
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is proposing a data 
collection activity as part of the Evaluation of Adolescent Pregnancy 
Prevention Approaches (PPA). PPA is a random assignment evaluation 
designed to result in rigorous 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 demonstration 
sites. The findings of the evaluation will be of interest to the 
general public, to policy makers, and to organizations interested in 
teen pregnancy prevention.
    This request for comment follows on a 60-Day Federal Register 
Public Comment Request Notice, published on Monday, July 12, 2010, pp. 
39695-39696, with the document identifier of OS-0990-New.
    This proposed information collection activity focuses on collecting 
follow-up data from a self-administered questionnaire which will be 
analyzed to determine program effects. Through a survey instrument, 
respondents will be asked to answer questions about demographics and 
risk and protective factors related to teen pregnancy.
    Respondents: The data will be collected through private, self-
administered questionnaires completed by study participants, i.e. 
adolescents assigned to a select school or community teen pregnancy 
prevention program or to a control group. Surveys will be distributed 
and collected by trained professional staff.
