OFP-Funded TPP Programs

square bullet 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:
