Teen Pregnancy Prevention Evaluation Grants

The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health within the Department of Health and Human Services is seeking applications for Teen Pregnancy Prevention Evaluation Grants under solicitation PA-PHE-26-001, which was posted on July 2, 2026, with a response deadline of August 5, 2026. The initiative aims to fund up to nine projects with an estimated total funding of $2.2 million, each award lasting up to three years, to support evaluations of teen pregnancy prevention approaches that advance understanding of program efficiency, effectiveness, and quality. Priority will be given to research that addresses novel questions using existing data sources such as secondary datasets, program records, administrative data, or prior evaluation findings, ensuring projects can be completed within a two- to three-year timeframe. Applications must focus on evaluations that generate actionable insights to strengthen teen pregnancy prevention efforts without requiring new data collection or lengthy fieldwork. The grants are open to organizations capable of conducting rigorous, methodologically sound analyses of existing information to produce findings with broad relevance and potential for policy or practice application. All proposals must be submitted through the designated grants portal, and inquiries should be directed to the point of contact listed as Callie Koesters at the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. There is no set-aside designation for specific applicant types, and the place of performance is not restricted to a specific geographic location.
