The Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) Program, established by Congress in 2010 and continuously funded for the last 15 years, relies on evidence-based policy to fund diverse organizations working to give adolescents, and the adults supporting them, the knowledge and tools needed to improve sexual and reproductive health outcomes and promote positive experiences, relationships, and environments in order to help youth thrive. But grantees who were approved by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in June 2023 for five-year projects to reduce teen pregnancy now face newly imposed requirements that programs must "align" with President Trump's anti-gender and anti-DEI executive orders, in direct conflict with the evidence-based principles on which the TPP Program was established.

HHS has reported that grants made under the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program have served 1.4 million youth across 41 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Marshall Islands since the Program was established in 2010. https://opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/2021-04/national-tpp-month-toolkit-2021.pdf
