The Office of Adolescent Health has just announced the following Cooperative agreement. Replication of Programs Proven Effective through Rigorous Evaluation to Reduce Teenage Pregnancy, Behavioral Risk Factors Underlying Teenage Pregnancy, or Other Associated Risk Factors (Tier 1) Phase I. Submission deadline is April 15Learn more.

Love Notes Sexual Risk Avoidance Adaptation (SRA) Evidence Based Program (EBP) is the version of Love Notes that meets all the criteria of this funding announcement because it complies with SRA criteria and is evidence based.

Love Notes EBP is the only evidence-based curriculum (program) that HHS has evaluated that both reduces adolescents’ risk for experiencing a pregnancy by 46% and also has positive outcomes for helping sexually active teens to decrease their frequency of sexual activity. More teens who were taught Love Notes stopped having sex and chose to remain abstinent compared to the control group.

Love Notes SRA EBP is implementation ready.  It is also medically accurate, age appropriate for ages 15-19, culturally and linguistically appropriate, and trauma-informed. Love Notes SRA EBP does not normalize teen sex.
