The Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act, signed into law in March of 2010, established the
Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) which funds
programs designed to educate adolescents on both abstinence and
contraception for the prevention of pregnancy and sexually
transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS, and at least three
adulthood preparation subjects. The goal of the PREP
Multi-Component Evaluation will be to document how programs funded
through the State PREP program are designed and implemented in the
field and to assess selected PREP-funded programs' effectiveness.
The evaluation has three main components: (1) the Design and
Implementation Study; (2) the Performance Analysis Study; and (3)
the Impact and In-depth Implementation Study. This submission
pertains to the latter two of these three components.
OMB gave approval on March 7,
2012 for the Design Survey under the DIS (OMB Control No.:
0970-0398). We now seek approval for the data collections
associated with the Performance Analysis Study and for the
collection of baseline data under the In-depth Impact and
Implementation Study. This request will increase the total burden
requested for the PREP Evaluation, under OMB Control No.
0970-0398.
