Promoting Science-Based Approaches to Teen Pregnancy Prevention Using Getting to Outcomes (PSBA-GTO)

PSBA-GTO (Promoting Science-Based Approaches to Teen Pregnancy Prevention Using Getting to Outcomes) is a comprehensive guide to help teen pregnancy prevention program managers employ science-based approaches as they 1) plan and set goals for prevention programs, 2) develop and conduct process and outcome evaluations of programs, and 3) learn ways to improve and sustain programs that are reaching outcomes.  Many program managers find they need training and technical assistance to use PSBA-GTO to implement their programs.  For more information about training and technical assistance, contact drhinfo@cdc.gov.
