This opportunity from the Office of Population Affairs (OPA), within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), funds projects replicating effective teen pregnancy prevention (TPP) programs. The aim is to reduce teen pregnancy and promote adolescent health by supporting the delivery of medically accurate, age-appropriate education and counseling. Programs must strengthen body literacy, promote informed consent, and advance optimal health for adolescents.
Funded projects should implement evidence-based TPP programs that have demonstrated effectiveness in reducing teen pregnancy or associated risk factors. Programs must ensure transparency and respect for parental rights, including advance notice, review opportunities, and opt-out provisions for parents or guardians. Emphasis is placed on integrating body literacy education, reproductive goals counseling, and sexual risk avoidance education, with ongoing monitoring and quality improvement.
