Abstract: In 2012, the Clark County Department of Family Services (DFS) was awarded funding from the Administration of Children and Families Children’s Bureau to implement the Determined, Responsible, and Empowered Adolescents Mentoring Relationships (DREAMR) project. One of the goals of the multifaceted DREAMR project was to reduce pregnancy among foster care youths and build relationship capacity for youths already pregnant or parenting. This brief examines the implementation of a Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) evidence-based curriculum in child welfare. Findings from the program intervention are also presented.
