Abstract: The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, signed into law in March of 2010, established the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) which funds programs designed to educate adolescents on both abstinence and contraception for the prevention of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS, and at least three adulthood preparation subjects. The goal of the PREP Multi-Component Evaluation will be to document how programs funded through the State PREP program are designed and implemented in the field and to assess selected PREP-funded programs' effectiveness. The evaluation has three main components: (1) the Design and Implementation Study; (2) the Performance Analysis Study; and (3) the Impact and In-depth Implementation Study. The PREP program has multiple components. However, this ICR is specifically related to two components of the program - state formula grant funding and "Competitive PREP" discretionary grant funding.

Short Statement: Approvals for two data collection efforts and the associated instruments: (1) collection of PREP performance measures for the Performance Analysis Study (PAS) through participant entry and exit surveys and the Performance Reporting System Data Entry Form for state and tribal grantees; and (2) collection of baseline data for the Impact and In-Depth Implementation Study (IIS) through the PREP baseline survey was received on March 12, 2013 (OMB Control # 0970-0398). We now seek approval for the data collections associated with the Performance Analysis Study for CPREP grantees and for the collection of youth follow-up data, staff interviews, a staff survey, and youth focus groups under the In-Depth Impact and Implementation Study. This request will increase the total burden requested for the PREP Evaluation, under OMB Control No. 0970-0398.
