The Trump administration's move to end funding aimed at curtailing teen pregnancy is reportedly leaving dozens of organizations that depend on the money floundering.

The Hill reported Friday that the decision last month to pull the plug two years early on five-year grants made as part of the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program came in some cases with no notice and no explanation. The Department of Health and Human Services informed 81 organizations participating in the program that their grants, totaling $213 million, would end in June 2018. Officials said in a statement the decision was due to "very weak evidence of positive impact of these programs."

The program was created in 2010 under former President Barack Obama with the goal of reducing and preventing teen pregnancy, especially targeting low-income and at risk populations, and was mean to run through 2020.

The Hill quoted the chief program officer at the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy in Washington, D.C., who said HHS had "offered up very little explanation" for the move.

The paper also talked to Dr. Leana Wen, health commissioner in Baltimore, where a program to decrease the teen birth rate will lose $3.5 million.

"We don't have another way to fill this deficit. This will leave a huge hole in our ability to deliver health education," Wen said.

The Trump administration proposed the elimination of the grant program in its budget sent to Congress earlier this year, although Congress has yet to approve fiscal 2018 spending levels.

"All of these grantees were given a project end date of June 30, 2018, allowing the grantees an opportunity to adjust their program and plan for an orderly close out," a Health and Human Services Department spokesman told the Center for Investigative Reporting .
