Abstract:
In 2010, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) launched the Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) initiative with the goal of reducing teen pregnancy by replicating evidence-based models (TPP-Tier 1) and developing, refining, and testing innovative strategies (TPP-Tier 2) (Koh, 2014; HHS, 2010). This report describes the implementation and impact evaluation findings of the Healthy Futures (HF) program (TPP-Tier 2) in public middle schools in three Massachusetts cities.
