Opportunity Summary:

The Teen Pregnancy Prevention Evaluation Grants opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: PA PHE 26 001) is a discretionary federal grant competition administered by the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. It focuses on funding evaluation projects that can meaningfully advance what is known about teen pregnancy prevention (TPP), especially by answering new or practical questions that can strengthen how TPP programs are designed, delivered, and improved over time. The overall aim is to generate evidence that helps increase the efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of teen pregnancy prevention approaches and related services.

OPA expects to make about $2.2 million available in total and anticipates making up to nine awards. Projects may last for up to three years, with the expectation that the work is realistic to complete within a two- to three-year window. The award ceiling is listed at $1,100,000, meaning individual awards can be funded up to that level, depending on the proposed scope. The grant is categorized under Health (CFDA/Assistance Listing number 93.343) and uses the grant funding instrument type.

A key feature of this opportunity is that it is oriented toward evaluations that can be executed quickly and efficiently using existing information sources rather than launching long, multi-year primary data collection efforts. OPA specifically highlights projects such as secondary data analyses and studies that rely on existing program data, existing evaluation datasets, research data, or administrative data. In practice, that means applicants are encouraged to leverage data that already exist (for example, program participation records, outcome measures collected by TPP programs, school or clinic administrative records where permitted, or previously collected survey/evaluation data) to test ideas, compare strategies, examine implementation and outcomes, or explore which program components work best for which populations and settings.

Eligibility is broad. Applicants can include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, independent school districts, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, tribal organizations, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in those categories), for-profit organizations (including entities other than small businesses), small businesses, and other eligible entities. In short, both public and private nonprofits can apply, and for-profit organizations are also eligible, which opens the door to a wide range of research organizations, evaluators, universities, and program partners.

The application deadline (original closing date) is August 5, 2026. The opportunity was created on July 2, 2026. Overall, the grant is designed for teams that can propose a focused, high-value evaluation that adds actionable evidence to the teen pregnancy prevention field within a relatively short timeframe, using rigorous methods applied to existing data sources.
