The Office of Adolescent Health (OAH), which merged with the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) in June 2019, administers the Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) program to implement and evaluate teen pregnancy prevention programs. It is one of six federal evidence-based initiatives that use the best evidence available to address social issues. From September 2015 to August 2021 (Fiscal Years 2015-2020), these grant recipients:
- Supported replication of evidence-based teen pregnancy prevention programs in communities with the greatest need.
- Increased capacity in communities to serve vulnerable youth, including homeless youth, parenting youth, and those in juvenile detention and foster care.
- Filled gaps in the knowledge of what works to prevent teen pregnancy.
- Tested new, innovative approaches to combating teen pregnancy.
