In this brief, we provide an overview of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Teen Pregnancy Prevention Evidence Review, an ongoing systematic review of the teen pregnancy prevention literature designed to identify programs with evidence of effectiveness in reducing teen pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and associated sexual risk behaviors. This brief is targeted at researchers planning or implementing an evaluation of a teen pregnancy prevention program, to provide information about the review process and requirements.
