Research Collaborations

OPA is involved in research collaborations with other Federal agencies. OPA is one of the major funding contributors to the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), a long-time national survey on reproductive health topics conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics. NSFG has completed six cycles and currently proceeds on a continuous interviewing basis. Additionally, OPA has funded a number of research initiatives at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, most notably providing support for the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health Exit Disclaimer, which is undertaking a fourth wave of longitudinal data collecting.
