Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP)
Description:

The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH), Bureau of Perinatal Reproductive and Sexual Health (BPRASH), announces the availability of up to $2.1 million annually to support the provision of the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) initiative throughout New York State (NYS) for the anticipated funding period of October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2028. This Request for Applications (RFA) represents the continued commitment of the NYSDOH to support comprehensive programming that fosters the prevention of adolescent pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

The PREP initiative will support the implementation of programs that replicate effective evidence-based program (EBP) models that have been proven based on scientific research to change behavior, such as delaying sexual activity, increasing condom or contraceptive use for sexually active youth, or reducing pregnancy among youth; and activities to ensure access for youth to comprehensive reproductive health care and family planning services.

The PREP initiative is funded by Federal Title V funds awarded to NYSDOH by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families. PREP funds must be used to implement EBPs to educate adolescents on both abstinence and contraception to prevent pregnancy and STIs/HIV, and on at least three adulthood preparation subjects, which are defined later in this RFA.
