SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interested persons are invited to send 
comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this 
collection of information, including any of the following subjects: (1) 
The necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for

    In the Federal Register of January 22, 2026, 91 FR 2786, HHS 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. No comments were received. OPA is proceeding 
with this 30-day comment period regarding three-year OMB approval for 
its revised collection instruments.
    Title of the Collection: Teen Pregnancy Prevention Performance 
Measures Collection.
    Type of Collection: Revision.
    OMB No.: 0937-0213.
    Abstract: The Office of Population Affairs (OPA), in the Office of 
the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), U.S. Department of Health 
and Human Services (HHS), requests a revision of clearance for the 
collection of performance measures from FY2023 Teen Pregnancy 
Prevention (TPP) Program grantees. OPA supports two types of grants 
through the TPP program: projects that replicate TPP program models 
that have been shown to be effective through rigorous evaluation (Tier 
1), and research and demonstration projects that develop and test 
additional models and innovative strategies to prevent teen pregnancy 
(Tier 2). Collection of performance measures is a requirement of all 
TPP awards and is in the Notice of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs). The 
data collection allows OPA to comply with federal accountability and 
performance requirements, inform stakeholders of grantee progress in 
meeting TPP program goals, provide OPA with metrics for monitoring 
FY2023 TPP grantees, and facilitate individual grantees' continuous 
quality improvement efforts within their projects. OPA revised the 
original clearance to update the estimated number of respondents 
provided in the original clearance to reflect the number of actual 
grantees awarded: Tier 1 respondents decreased by 12 (from 70 to 58), 
Tier 2 Hubs respondents decreased by 4 (from 10 to 6) and Tier 2 
Rigorous Impact respondents decreased by 1 (from 16 to 15). The 
decrease in respondents reduced total burden by 222 hours (from 1,431 
hours to 1,209 hours). OPA added one new item to the Tier 2 Hubs form 
(prototypes developed per reporting period). Grantees are already 
collecting prototypes per period to report another approved item (the 
total number of prototypes developed to date), and this item should not 
change the burden estimated for the form. OPA requests clearance for 
three years.
