2. PURPOSE
The Maricopa County Department of Public Health (MCDPH) through its Office of Health
Promotion and Education (OHPE) proposes to decrease the teen birth rate in Maricopa
County. This project will impact the teen birth rate by building the capacity of established
youth-serving organizations to provide quality, evidence-based teen pregnancy
prevention programming (TPP). The project consists of two primary strategies: (1)
targeted capacity building assistance (CBA) to at least six youth-serving organizations
within two separate cohorts and (2) the establishment of a community of practice
focused on teen pregnancy prevention.
For its part, Contractor will oversee the overall evaluation of the process for providing
CBA to youth-serving organizations, work with MCDPH in addressing training and
technical assistance needs in the areas of data collection, fidelity and evaluation based
on assessment results and action plans. Furthermore, the Contractor will assist MCDPH
in evaluation of the MCDPH Teen Pregnancy Prevention Community Advisory Board
(CAB), Community of Practice (CoP) using appropriate methods protocols.
3. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CONTRACTOR

evidence-based TPP program (i.e., reach, participant attendance, fidelity,
implementation quality, adaptations), outcomes of the program (i.e., outcome
objectives, participant satisfaction, reception of the community to the program,
facilitator experience), and lessons learned.
12

SECTION III WORK STATEMENT
F. Document the process of developing and implementing CBA strategies that TBH
and MCDPH offer and will identify key successes, risks and challenges, and
lessons learned based on the analysis of performance measures, results of the
capacity assessment tools, feedback from participating organizations. Train
MCDPH staff in conducting social network analysis, most likely using the
PARTNER tool.
G. Oversee the development of the implementation evaluation report by the end of
the five-year project period. The report will include several topics such as the
planning process and process for selecting organizations; implementation
including staff, what CBA was offered and challenges; outcomes including goals
of the CBA or barriers; and lessons learned. Further, recommendations and
conclusions will be included in the overall report.
H. All partners will assist in disseminating evaluation results and lessons learned

data and conducting evaluation activities are anticipated as the applicants are
current grantees and have robust procedures in place to ensure full compliance
