Grantees
The Adolescent Family Life (AFL) Program supports organizations across the country in their efforts to address issues associated with teenage pregnancy and early sexual activity. AFL funds two primary types of grants for up to five years each: Care and Prevention. Both types of grantees support the emotional and physical health and well-being of adolescents, their parents, their families, and the community.
Adolescent Family Life grantees are encouraged to publish and disseminate their findings from their demonstration projects. AFL demonstration projects have published a variety of findings over the past several years. Many of those publications can be found here: [pdf] [html]
Lessons Learned
AFL demonstration grantees have a great deal of experience in working with individuals, families, schools, and communities. Through these demonstration projects, AFL grantees have been able to be innovative and learn best practices. In the spring 2009, OAPP synthesized some of these lessons learned from both care and prevention grantees. Several key themes arose across grantees that can be helpful to others in planning their own projects for success.
