Community
Challenge Grant (CCG)
The Community Challenge Grant (CCG) Program is a wide-scale,
community-driven teen pregnancy prevention program that utilizes a
variety of approaches and strategies to: reduce teenage and unintended
pregnancy and absentee fatherhood; promote responsible parenting; and
increase the involvement of fathers in the economic, social, and emotional
development of their children. The heart of the CCG Program lies in
the fundamental premise that community-driven approaches to teen pregnancy
increase community ownership of solutions.
In an effort to involve as many groups and
individuals as possible in this process, all CCG grantees are legislatively
mandated to match 10—20% of their annual grant award with contributions
from non-governmental sources, such as local business, foundations,
community groups, and others. Additionally, all grantees are required
to organize and support a community collaborative (formal or informal).
For more information on the Community Challenge Grant
Program, see one of the following presentations on collaboration and
community match requirements:

Information
& Education Program (I&E)
The Information and Education (I&E) projects have
been a major component of the OFP for the past 30 years. The local
projects provide services to youth and adults throughout the state
in a variety of settings and utilize various strategies appropriate
to meeting the growing and diverse needs of Californians today. The
program provides funding for educational programs that emphasize primary
prevention to enhance knowledge, attitudes and skills of adolescents
and young men and women of childbearing age to make responsible decisions
relevant to sexual and reproductive behavior.
