Opportunity Summary:

The FY 2010 "Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Research and Demonstration Programs (Tier 2) and Personal Responsibility Education Program" funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number AH TP2 10 001) is a competitive, discretionary federal grant announcement designed to support new, medically accurate and age-appropriate approaches to preventing teen pregnancy. It was jointly developed by the Office of Adolescent Health (OAH) and the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), with both agencies planning to coordinate how applications are solicited, reviewed, and ultimately selected for funding. A notable feature of the announcement is that it uses one shared application process for two closely aligned programs, which is meant to reduce applicant burden by removing the need to guess which program is the better fit or to submit multiple applications for essentially similar goals.

The opportunity is structured around cooperative agreements, meaning awardees should expect an active partnership with the federal government rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The core intent is to strengthen the national field of teen pregnancy prevention by funding projects that either build evidence through research and demonstration or implement innovative programming in ways that are responsive to particular community needs. In practical terms, the announcement supports work that develops new program models, replicates promising models in new settings, refines existing strategies to improve effectiveness, and tests innovative approaches to see what works, for whom, and under what conditions.

This single announcement covers two program tracks with a shared prevention mission but slightly different emphasis. Under the Teenage Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) Tier 2 focus, the purpose is to fund research and demonstration efforts that expand the range of tested models and strategies. That includes designing and evaluating interventions, adapting interventions for different contexts, and generating credible evidence about outcomes. Under the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) focus, the goal is to implement innovative pregnancy prevention strategies and to ensure services are targeted to specific populations and places where risk is high or needs are not being met. The overall through-line is innovation paired with appropriate content standards: interventions must be medically accurate and age appropriate.

A major priority in the announcement is reaching youth and young families who face elevated risk and unequal access to supports. The FOA explicitly highlights high-risk, vulnerable, and culturally underrepresented groups, including youth in foster care, homeless youth, youth living with HIV/AIDS, pregnant women or mothers under age 21 and their partners, and youth living in communities with high youth birth rates. This focus signals that applicants are expected to think carefully about who is being served, why the target population is at heightened risk, and how program design and delivery will fit the cultural and practical realities of those participants.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, the federal government anticipated making about 45 awards from an estimated total of $35,000,000. Individual awards were expected to range from $400,000 (award floor) to $1,000,000 (award ceiling). The opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which reduces financial barriers for organizations that may not have access to non-federal resources. The assistance listing associated with the TPP program is CFDA 93.297, and the funding activity category is Health.

Eligibility was broad and included many types of public, private, nonprofit, and education-sector entities. Eligible applicants included state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in those nonprofit categories as specified); small businesses; and other for-profit organizations (other than small businesses). This wide eligibility suggests the agencies were seeking a diverse set of applicants capable of implementing or studying pregnancy prevention strategies across many settings, including schools, community-based programs, youth-serving systems, and research environments.

Key dates in the announcement included a posted date of April 8, 2010, with the application closing date set for June 8, 2010. The deadline specified 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time for electronic submissions and 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time for hard-copy submissions, and the opportunity was archived on July 8, 2010. For access issues related to the full announcement or the submission system, the notice directed applicants to the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), with customer support available on weekdays during extended hours.

Overall, the grant opportunity is best understood as a federal investment in both innovation and evidence: generating and testing new teen pregnancy prevention approaches (TPP Tier 2) while also supporting implementation strategies that intentionally reach populations with heightened vulnerability and communities with high rates of teen births (PREP). It emphasizes accuracy and developmental appropriateness in program content, encourages collaboration with federal partners under a cooperative agreement structure, and opens the door to a wide range of applicant organizations that can demonstrate capacity to deliver or evaluate impactful prevention programming.
