Evaluation of Pregnancy Prevention Program Replications for High Risk and Hard to Reach Youth

OMB 0990-0472

OMB 0990-0472

The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is requesting approval by OMB of a new information collection request specific to Pregnancy Prevention Programs for Adolescents: A Replication Study. The request is for 24 months. OASH is proposing to conduct an independent evaluation examining whether programs that have been proven effective through rigorous evaluation can be replicated with similarly successful and consistent results among hard-to-reach, high-risk, vulnerable, or understudied youth. The independent evaluator, MITRE, will use a quasi-experimental design to measure program effects on youth knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, intentions, and behaviors related to sexual health. The evaluation will also examine youth perspectives regarding participation in adolescent pregnancy prevention programs. Up to eight implementing organizations—organizations focused on health, education, and social services that have experience working with community-based organizations to implement pregnancy prevention programs for adolescents—will implement previously proven-effective adolescent pregnancy prevention programs for up to 1,900 youth. Baseline data will be collected from a matched comparison group with a subset of these participating program youth. Findings will inform OASH’s programmatic efforts to improve sexual health knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, intentions, and behaviors among hard-to-reach, vulnerable, or understudied youth.
