Evaluation of OAPP Adolescent Pregancy Programs, 1982

The Department of Health and Human Services funded service projects for pregnant and parenting teens, teens at risk of pregnancy, and their families and male partners. This study was designed to evaluate how grantees implemented their projects and what impact project participation had on the lives of project clients. The data collected included information on client entry characteristics, pregnancy outcomes, mother and infant follow-ups, and types of services delivered. The Urban Institute developed a voluntary case management system for projects to use, with capacity for recording and aggregating project data. The data in this file comes from the projects' use of this case management system. The data collection period was from October 1981 to September 1982. There are 20 separate projects; there are a total of 792 variables and 198 cases.
