Proposed Project

Lessons Learned from the Community

Coalition Partnership Programs for the

Prevention of Teen Pregnancy—New—

The United States has the highest

teenage pregnancy rate of all developed

countries. About 1 million teenagers

become pregnant each year and most of

those pregnancies are unintended.

These pregnancies have profound

economic, social and personal impacts

on the teen mothers, their children, and

society.

Since 1995, the Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention (CDC) has

funded 13 community-wide coalitions,

the Community Coalition Partnership

Programs for Prevention of Teen

Pregnancy, to reduce the incidence of

teenage pregnancy through a youth

development model. Phase I of this

effort included a 2-year planning phase

and Phase II is the 5-year intervention

phase to be completed in September

2002. The proposed data collection is an

evaluation of lessons learned from this

demonstration project. The goals of the

proposed data collection are:

• to provide evidence about effective

long-term programs, their components,

and approaches

• to identify best practices, practices

to avoid, best investments, and how-to

steps

• to inform the implementation of the

demonstration program

• to inform the modification (if any)

and expansion (if any) of the program

The data will be collected via

interviews with key stakeholders from

the hub organization (the one receiving

CDC funding), its partner organizations,

and the community during two 3-day

site visits to each site. The second site

visit will occur a year after the first site

visit. If any key stakeholders cannot be

present during the site visit, they will be

interviewed by phone. There are no

costs to Respondents.
