SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, ACL has
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is requesting
approval to collect data for the Evidence Based Program Fidelity
Surveys [OMB #0985-New]. The Evidence Based Program Fidelity Surveys
will be used by ACL to evaluate the fidelity with which ACL's grantee
organizations, under the Older Americans Act, implement the required
evidence-based programs. States that receive Older Americans Act funds
under Title III-D are required to spend those funds on evidence-based
programs to improve the health and well-being of their clients and to
reduce disease and injury. Since 2003, the aging services network has
been steadily moving towards wider implementation of disease prevention
and health promotion programs that are based on scientific evidence and
demonstrated to improve the health of older adults. The FY 2012
Congressional appropriations law included, for the first time, an
evidence-based requirement related to Title III-D funds.
The results of this information collection will be used by ACL/AoA
to:
<bullet> Effectively report its results to the President, to
Congress, to the Department of Health and Human Services and to the
public.
<bullet> Assess the effectiveness of ACL and its grantees in
monitoring program fidelity.
<bullet> Aid in program refinement and continuous improvement.
