An evaluation must be conducted by a firm or individual external to the department, on a schedule to be determined by the department, and must assess the effectiveness of each initiative in meeting its short and long term outcomes. The evaluator will also assess adherence to national best practice models as well as fidelity to program design and delivery of services, and other indicia of success in reducing adolescent pregnancy and the risk factors that contribute to adolescent pregnancy. Evaluation standards must be consistent across all initiatives. The evaluation also must assess the effectiveness of each county government's efforts in measurably reducing the rate of adolescent pregnancy for the county. These efforts include administration of the fund and selection and oversight of contractors.
