Resources

The Teen Pregnancy Prevention Evidence Review has compiled this list of resources that provide more information on the features and implementation of evidence-based teen pregnancy prevention programs.

See the September 2016 issue of the American Journal of Public Health (AJPH) for information on the motivation for and the history of evidence-building activity in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) Office of Population Affairs’ (OPA) Teen Pregnancy Prevention program, and the February 2018 issue of AJPH for background on the HHS Administration for Children and Families' (ACF) Family and Youth Services Bureau's (FYSB) Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention program.
