Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information
collection request titled ``Capacity Building Assistance Program Data
Management, Monitoring, and Evaluation'' to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. CDC previously published a
``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations'' notice on February 5, 2024, to obtain comments from
the public and affected agencies. CDC received no public comments
related to the previous notice. This notice serves to allow an
additional 30 days for public and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly
interested in comments that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary
[[Page 65353]]
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) 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 submission of responses; and
(e) Assess information collection costs.
To request additional information on the proposed project or to
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call
(404) 639-7570. Comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in
this notice to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management
and Budget, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)
395-5806. Provide written comments within 30 days of notice
publication.
Proposed Project
Capacity Building Assistance Program Data Management, Monitoring,
and Evaluation (OMB Control No. 0920-1322, Exp. 2/29/2024)--
Reinstatement--National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, TB
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) partners with
the national HIV prevention workforce to: (1) ensure that persons with
HIV (PWH) are aware of their infection and successfully linked to
medical care and treatment to achieve viral suppression; and (2) expand
access to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), condoms, and other proven
strategies for communities over-represented in the HIV epidemic. CDC
funds state and local health departments and community-based
organizations (CBOs) to optimally plan, integrate, implement, and
sustain comprehensive HIV prevention programs and services for
communities over-represented in the HIV epidemic, including Blacks/
African Americans; Hispanics/Latinos; all races/ethnicities of gay,
bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (collectively referred to
as MSM); people who inject drugs (PWID); and transgender persons.
Through the CDC cooperative agreement program entitled CDC-RFA-
PS19-1904: Capacity Building Assistance (CBA) for High Impact HIV
Prevention Program Integration, the CDC Division of HIV Prevention
(DHP) funds the CBA Provider Network (CPN) to deliver CBA to CDC-funded
health departments and CBOs. CBA provided by the CPN include trainings
and technical assistance (TA) that enable the HIV prevention workforce
to optimally plan, implement, integrate, and sustain high-impact
prevention interventions and strategies to reduce HIV infections and
HIV related morbidity, mortality, and health disparities across the
United States and its territories.
This information collection evaluates CDC-RFA-PS19-1904.
Specifically, the CDC is requesting the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) to grant a three-year Extension to collect data through the use
of four web-based instruments that will be administered to recipients
of CBA services and their program managers: (1) Learning Group
Registration (LGR); (2) Post-Training Evaluation (PTE); (3) Post-
Technical Assistance Evaluation (PTAE); and (4) Training and Technical
Assistance Follow-up Survey (TTAFS).
CBA training participants will complete the Learning Group
Registration Form as part of the process for enrolling in a CBA
training. The Learning Group Registration Form collects demographic
information about training participants including: (1) business contact
information (e.g., email and telephone number); (2) primary
[employment] functional role; (3) employment setting; and (4)
programmatic and population areas of focus. After an online or in-
person training event is completed, training participants are invited
to complete the PTE. The PTE is designed to elicit information from
training participants about their satisfaction with the training
delivery method and course content. Similar to the PTE, the PTAE
consists of questions designed to elicit information from TA
participants about their satisfaction with aspects of TA such as the
relevance of the materials provided or created, responsiveness of the
TA provider, TA participants' changes in knowledge or skills as a
result of the TA, and barriers and facilitators to implementation of
interventions/public health strategies. The TTAFS collects
organizational-level data every six months from the program managers
within CDC-funded programs. Program managers provide information about
the implementation status of the intervention/public health strategy
for which their staff received training and/or TA. Program managers are
also asked to describe how their organization applied the training and
TA (e.g., planning or adapting an intervention/public health strategy).
The Learning Group Registration Form, PTE, and PTAE will be
administered to CDC-funded program staff who participate in a training
or TA event offered by a CBA provider funded under PS19-1904. The TTAFS
will be administered to the program managers of state and local health
department staff and CBO staff who participate in a CBA training or TA
event. Respondents will provide information electronically through an
online survey. The option to complete surveys via a telephone interview
will be offered to respondents who do not complete the online survey
within seven days. The number of respondents is calculated based on an
average of the number of health professionals, including doctors,
nurses, health educators, and disease intervention specialists, trained
by CBA providers during the years 2016-2022. CDC estimates 3,800 health
professionals will provide one response for the LGR; 3,800 health
professionals will provide a response for the PTE for each training
episode; 3,650 health professionals will provide a response for the
PTAE for each TA episode; and 189 program managers will provide two
responses to the TTAFS in the web-based or telephone survey per year.
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 1,671 annualized burden
hours. There are no other costs to respondents other than their time to
participate.
