Abstract: The Nationwide Study (NWS) is part of the Sexual Risk Avoidance Education National Evaluation (SRAENE) National Descriptive Study (NDS). The purpose of SRAENE is to provide information on the design and implementation of Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) programs, the effectiveness of program components, and the ways grant recipients can use data and evidence to improve SRAE programming. SRAENE involves the following three main parts, two sub-studies and the provision of technical assistance: (1) the NDS of SRAE program implementation and youth outcomes, (2) a Program Components Impact Study to identify effective SRAE program components (OMB information collection request forthcoming), and (3) data capacity building and local evaluation support for SRAE grant recipients (feedback surveys approved through generic clearances). This request is specific to the NDS and the goal is to learn about program implementation experiences and outcomes of the SRAE grant program. The data collection would include conducting onetime surveys of SRAE grant recipients, program providers, and program facilitators as well as holding focus groups with youth from various SRAE programs. Taken together, these data will be used to understand program implementation experiences and to examine relationships between program implementation and outcomes.
