Abstract: The purpose of this information collection is to help ACF identify and select teen pregnancy prevention intervention programs for the Evaluation of Pregnancy Prevention Approaches (PPA). The goal of the PPA evaluation is to determine the effectiveness of these approaches in affecting key outcomes related to pregnancy prevention (e.g. sexual debut, pregnancy, STD infection, etc.). Information collected will also be used to identify major research themes and questions that are most pressing to the field that the PPA evaluation can answer.
