Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice with comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part
of its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the
utility of government information, invites the general public and other
federal agencies the opportunity to comment on a proposed and/or
continuing information collection, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed
information collection project titled, Annual Reporting of the Rape
Prevention and Education (RPE) Program. The RPE Program is the
principal federally funded program focused on sexual violence (SV)
prevention. This data collection allows

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), federal agencies must obtain approval from
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires
federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information
collection before submitting the collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a
proposed data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submissions of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Annual Reporting of the Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) Program
(OMB Control No. 0920-1286, Exp. 3/31/2023)--Revision--National Center
for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This is a request for a Revision of the currently approved Annual
Reporting of the Rape prevention and Education (RPE) Program collection
(OMB Control No. 0920-1286, Exp. 03/31/2023). This Revision is being
requested to continue to collect information related to implementation
and outcomes annually from 53 recipients or their designated delegates
funded through the funding opportunity, CE19-1902. Sexual violence (SV)
is a major public health problem. One in three women and one in four
men experienced SV involving physical contact during their lifetimes.
Nearly one in five women and one in 38 men have experienced completed
or attempted rape. SV starts early: One in three female and one in four
male rape victims experienced it for the first time between 11-17 years
old. CDC's Division of Violence Prevention (DVP) provides national
leadership in prevention of SV perpetration and victimization before it
begins (i.e., primary prevention). DVP administers the RPE Program,
which provides funding to health departments in all 50 states, the
District of Columbia (DC), Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands,
and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands.
The RPE Program is the principal federally funded program focused
on SV primary prevention. Collecting information about the
implementation and outcomes of CE19-1902 cooperative agreement through
the online data system (DVP Partners Portal) is crucial to informing SV
prevention nationally; enhancing accountability of the use of federal
funds; providing timely program reports and responses to information
requests, such as Congressional requests mandated by the authorizing
legislation; improving real-time communications between CDC and RPE
recipients; and strengthening CDC's capacity to provide responsive
data-driven technical assistance and to monitor and evaluate
recipients' progress and performance.
Information will be collected annually from recipients through the
DVP Partners Portal. The DVP Partners Portal is organized by forms,
which are further organized by sections and sub-sections. Recipients
and program staff are able to review information reported in previous
years within the DVP Partners Portal per their authenticated access. In
addition, information from previous reports will be carried over and
pre-populated for the next annual reporting as appropriate. Thus, with
DVP Partners Portal most of the burden is required during the initial
population of information (Year 1), Recipients will only need to enter
changes, provide progress information, and add new information after
Year 1.
CDC will use the information to be collected for the following:
<bullet> Enhance accountability of the use of federal funds
<bullet> Provide timely program reports and responses to information
request
<bullet> Improve real-time communications between CDC and recipients
<bullet> Strengthen CDC's capacity to provide responsive and data-
driven TA
<bullet> Strengthen CDC's capacity to monitor and evaluate recipients'
progress and performance towards activities required as part of the
cooperative agreement
<bullet> Allow both CDC and recipients to track their own state
activities and outcomes, and ensure alignment between their state and
local activities
<bullet> Generate a variety of routine and customizable reports
specifically for each recipient and in aggregate nationally for CDC
stakeholders
The total estimated annual burden for this collection is 424 hours.
CDC is requesting a one-year approval. There is no cost to respondents
other than their time.
