The Health Promotion Resource Center (HPRC/MSM) at Morehouse School of Medicine proposes to implement the Statewide Network Among Partners for Parents/Caregivers (SNAPP). SNAPP will implement a three-year innovation and impact strategy to explore, develop, test, refine, evaluate and disseminate effective parenting and caregiver interventions that help reduce teen pregnancy, STIs sexual and related risk behavior in the state of Georgia. HPRC/MSM will assemble a statewide Network of Partners to identify and develop 20 caregiver/parenting interventions over the course of the three-year project. The Network of Partners includes 30 partners that represent a diverse group of social/health systems officials and a diverse group of stakeholders, parents and youth that represent the population of focus. The Network of Partners will be divided into four committees: Planning and Search Committee, Creative Development Committee, Evaluation Committee and Dissemination Committee. These committees will contribute to achieving the goals and objectives of the programs through task specific work groups. The goals are to 1) Increase understanding of the relationship between caregiver/parent-child relationships and teen pregnancy, STIs, sexual risk behavior and related risk, and 2) Increase the number of evidence-based caregiver/parent interventions for reduction of teen pregnancy, STIs, sexual and related risk behavior. The project will conduct approximately five formative and outcome evaluations and 2-3 summative evaluations on the most promising interventions refined and tested by the Network of Partners.
