TITLE
OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention (APP)
Program Grantee Conference Planning Committee Feedback
PURPOSE: The purpose of the activity is to collect feedback from grantees that will inform planning for the 2022 Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention (APP) Grantee Conference. The feedback we receive from grantees will provide essential information that is critical to plan a conference that meets the training needs and expectations of the grantees.
The questions provide an expeditious format to gather specific information from grantees during conference-planning meeting calls. We plan to hold four planning sessions with grantees. One session will focus on the conference theme, structure, and networking, two will focus on feedback related to visual design and one will focus on feedback related to engaging youth and grantees as well as general feedback related to the overall conference experience. This information will be used to plan various aspects of the conference.
DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS: Respondents include up to 14 grantee staff who represent State Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP), Competitive PREP, Tribal PREP, PREP Innovative Strategies (PREIS), Sexual Risk Avoidance (SRAE), Title V Competitive SRAE and Title V State SRAE grantees with projects administered by the APP Program.
