Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) Program — National Training Center

National Training Center for Teen Pregnancy Prevention

Supports national-level teams delivering training and technical guidance to teen pregnancy prevention efforts across United States partners.

The FY2026 National Training Center for Teen Pregnancy Prevention (NOFO AH-TPS-26-001) is a single-award cooperative agreement issued by the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) under HHS/OASH. The award ceiling is $1.5 million — the entire program pool — and only one recipient will be selected nationally, making this among the most competitive funding opportunities in the OPA portfolio. The cooperative agreement is authorized under Division B of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026 (Public Law No. 119-75). Assistance Listing is 93.297. The NOFO was forecasted with an estimated post date of May 30, 2026, application due date of June 30, 2026, and estimated award date of September 30, 2026. Contact is Elizabeth Davis at 240-453-6817 or Elizabeth.Davis@hhs.gov.

The funded center must provide training and technical assistance (TTA) to all OPA-funded Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) program grant recipients. Because many TPP grantees rely on sub-recipients and implementation partners to directly deliver services, OPA expects the center to provide TTA at the grant recipient, sub-recipient, and implementation partner levels — not just the top tier. Eligibility is entirely unrestricted: for-profit companies, small businesses, nonprofits (with or without 501(c)(3)), tribal organizations, all levels of government, and educational institutions can all apply. No cost-sharing is required. OASH will be actively involved in directing project activities under the cooperative agreement mechanism.

Because only one award is made, the winning applicant must demonstrate the deepest existing relationships across the OPA-funded TPP grantee network, the most established TTA infrastructure and curriculum, and the strongest evaluation plan for assessing TTA impact on grantee capacity and performance. All activities must comply with statutory requirements and align with OASH priorities. Organizations that have previously operated national training functions for federally funded public health programs will be best positioned to respond to this single-award opportunity.
