Grantees providing direct curriculum-based prevention education (e.g., LifeSkills, Positive Action, Strengthening Families) are required to conduct pre- and post-surveys prior to, and after, the completion of each program cohort. These surveys are used to inform the overall SUPTRS Block Grant program evaluation. After the program year providers will receive a summary outcome report of their programs’ survey results.

When implementing evidence-based programs and practices, it is important to consider fidelity and adaptation.
- Fidelity: The degree to which a program or practice is implemented as intended.
- Adaptation: Describes how much, and in which ways, a program or practice is changed to meet local circumstances.
Evidence-based programs and practices are defined as such because they consistently achieve positive outcomes. The greater the fidelity to the original program design, the more likely the program will reproduce positive results. While customizing a program to better reflect the attitudes, beliefs, experiences, and values of a focus population can increase its cultural relevance, it is important to keep in mind that such adaptations may compromise program effectiveness.
