    Information Collection Request Title: Teen Pregnancy Prevention 
(TPP) Tier 1B Design and Implementation Study
    Abstract: The Office of Adolescent Health (OAH) is requesting an 
approval by OMB on a new information collection. For the TPP Tier 1B 
Design and Implementation Study, we will document how each of the 50 
grantees funded under this grant program are scaling-up efforts to 
strengthen and expand the reach of evidence-based TPP programs in their 
respective communities. OAH anticipates that grantees will employ 
diverse strategies in working within their communities to scale up 
their initiatives. Because this information collection will contribute 
to the emerging knowledge base about community-wide efforts to scale up 
evidence-based programs (EBPs), mobilize community support, and 
establish linkages to youth-friendly health services at the community 
level, it will be important to document the variety of grantee 
approaches and challenges they have encountered as a result of local 
conditions and strategies. To document these features and experiences, 
a lead staff member in each grantee organization will be interviewed by 
phone as well as up to two key grantee partners. Partners to be 
interviewed will be selected based on the prominence and variety of 
their roles within each initiative in order to provide multiple 
perspectives on implementation. To obtain more detail on implementation 
than can be gathered in a telephone interview, site visits with up to 
15 grantees will be conducted to collect data that will illustrate in 
detail a variety of approaches and strategies for scaling up to the 
community level evidence-based approaches to teen pregnancy prevention.
    Likely Respondents: Respondents for telephone interviews will 
include 50 TPP Tier 1B grantee project directors and 100 implementation 
partner project directors. Site visit interview participants will 
include 120 grantee and partner staff members, and 40 Community 
Advisory Group members. Eighty Youth Leadership Council members will be 
recruited to participate in 10 focus groups.

    OS specifically requests comments on (1) the necessity and utility 
of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of 
the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden, (3)
