The lessons learned from these challenges laid the groundwork for a second a round of evaluation TA with a second cohort of TPP grantees that began in summer 2015.
The primary goal of the evaluation technical assistance (TA) was to help the grantees and their evaluators produce rigorous evidence of program effectiveness that would meet the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) evidence review standards.
This article highlights the results of the Office of Adolescent Health’s (OAH) substantial investment in rigorous evaluations of teen pregnancy prevention (TPP) programs.
