National Annual Grantee Conferences

The Office of Adolescent Pregnancy Programs (OAPP) is pleased to host this year’s AFL Care Grantee Annual Conference in San Antonio, Texas, December 13 – 15, 2010. This year’s Annual Conference will focus on Planning and Innovating for Reform. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) brings a new landscape of considerations for policy makers, program planners, and service providers of pregnant and parenting adolescents. In this era of reform, AFL Care grantees have an unprecedented opportunity to direct the field of adolescent pregnancy by building the pool of evidence for effective programming through their demonstration projects. The purpose of the conference is: (1) to formally introduce grantees to the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health’s initiatives and OAPP’s policies; (2) to equip and enhance AFL grantees’ knowledge, skills, and abilities in areas relevant to the needs of their target populations, program management, and evaluation methodology, analysis and outcomes; and (3) to provide a platform in which grantees can share their program and evaluation findings with others.

AFL Care grantees will be provided the latest information on psychosocial and health issues affecting pregnant and parenting teens that will enhance service delivery to adolescents and their families. By the end of the conference, Care grantees will understand more effective intervention and evaluation techniques to improve their demonstration projects and the health and well-being of adolescents and their families.
