SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ACICBL provides advice and

[[Page 29139]]
HHS (Secretary) concerning policy and program development, and other
significant matters related to activities under the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act, which includes Area Health Education Centers,
Geriatrics, Mental and Behavioral Health, Social Work, Graduate
Psychology, Rural Health, and Pharmacy.
ACICBL is responsible for preparing and submitting an annual report
to the Secretary and Congress describing the activities of the
Committee, including findings and recommendations made by the
Committee. ACICBL meets at least three times per year. A copy of the
current committee membership, charter, and reports can be obtained by
accessing the ACICBL website at: <a href="https://www.hrsa.gov/advisory-committees/interdisciplinary-community-linkages/index.html">https://www.hrsa.gov/advisory-committees/interdisciplinary-community-linkages/index.html</a>.
Nominations: HRSA is requesting nominations for voting members to
serve as Special Government Employees. The Secretary appoints ACICBL
members with the expertise needed to fulfill the duties of the
Committee. The membership requirements are set forth in section 757 of
the PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 294f). Members are health professionals from
schools of medicine or osteopathic medicine, schools of dentistry,
schools of pharmacy, schools of public health, physician assistant
education programs, and schools of allied health. Interested applicants
may self-nominate or be nominated by another individual or
organization.
Individuals selected for appointment to the Committee will be
invited to serve for 3 years. Members of ACICBL, as Special Government
Employees, receive compensation for performance of their duties on the
Committee and reimbursement for per diem and travel expenses incurred
for attending ACICBL meetings.
The following information must be included in the package of
materials submitted for each individual nominated for consideration:
(1) A letter of nomination from an employer, a colleague, or a
professional organization; (2) a current copy of the nominee's
curriculum vitae; (3) a statement of interest from the nominee; and (4)
a one-paragraph biographical sketch of the nominee. Nomination packages
may be submitted directly by the individual being nominated or by the
person/organization nominating the candidate.
HHS endeavors to ensure that the membership of ACICBL is fairly
balanced in terms of points of view represented and among the health
professions. ACICBL also seeks a broad representation of geographic
areas, including balance between urban and rural members, gender, and
minority groups, including individuals with disabilities. At least 75
percent of the members of the Committee are health professionals.
Appointments shall be made without discrimination on the basis of age,
race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and or
cultural, religious, or socioeconomic status.
Individuals who are selected to be considered for appointment will
be required to provide detailed information regarding their financial
holdings, consultancies, and research grants or contracts. Disclosure
of this information is required for HRSA ethics officials to determine
whether there is a potential conflict of interest between the Special
Government Employee's public duties as a member of ACICBL and their
private interests, including an appearance of a loss of impartiality as
defined by federal laws and regulations, and to identify any required
remedial action needed to address the potential conflict.
Authority: ACICBL is required by section 757 (42 U.S.C. 294f) of
the PHS Act. Except where otherwise indicated, the Committee is
governed by provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act of (FACA)
of 1972 (5 U.S.C. 10), as amended, which sets forth standards for the
formation and use of advisory committees.
Maria G. Button,
Director, Executive Secretariat.
