Cross-site Study Data for
Improving Implementation Evaluation among Office of Adolescent
Health (OAH) Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) Grantees to inform
National Implementations (IMAGIN)
New
collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)
The IMAGIN Cross-Site Study will
examine the process that federal Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP)
grantees follow to get their programs and staff ready for full
implementation of programs by exploring specific factors related to
the program models’ readiness for implementation and evaluation,
the grantee organizations’ capacity to operate and deliver the
program as intended, and the local enabling context. The Office of
Adolescent Health (OAH) will use data obtained from this study to
identify meaningful lessons, targeted resources, and timely
guidance that could help both current and future federal grantees
get their programs ready to implement, and add to the evidence on
the successes and challenges of implementing a teen pregnancy
prevention program. The cross-site study will include up to 44
grantees receiving TPP Tier 1 and Tier 2 grants, in two cohorts:
currently, OAH has funded 14 TPP18 Tier 2 grantees. By this fall,
up to 30 TPP19 Tier 1 grantees are expected to receive funding,
bringing the total number of grantee organizations in this study to
44. Key informant interviews with grantee leadership, community
stakeholders, and key staff will be conducted, as well as a
web-based survey of grantee frontline staff. OAH is requesting
three years of clearance for the IMAGIN cross-site study. The
analyses, when complete, will be the basis of a final
implementation report that will focus on key findings about the
factors that helped or hindered the process of implementation
readiness in different contexts, along with actionable lessons and
concrete takeaways for grantees, researchers, and funders. Aside
from the specific products drawing on the cross-site study, these
analyses will also play a critical role in developing targeted
tools, resources, and practitioner-focused guides or briefs related
to implementation readiness.
