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 ``Delta Impact Cooperative Agreement 
Evaluation data collection Instruments'' 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 02/28/2020 to obtain comments from the 
public and affected agencies. CDC received two 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 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 www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. 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

    DELTA Impact Cooperative Agreement Evaluation Data Collection 
Instruments--New--National Center for Injury Prevention and Control 
(NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) seeks OMB 
approval for three years for a new information collection request to 
collect information from all 10 recipients (State Domestic Violence 
Coalitions) and all 17 subrecipients (Coordinated Community Response 
teams) funded through CDC's Domestic Violence Prevention Enhancements 
and Leadership Through Alliances (DELTA) Impact Program cooperative 
agreement (NOFO CDC-RFA-CE18-1801). CDC will collect information from 
DELTA Impact recipients as part of its program evaluation to assess the 
implementation and impact of the NOFO and further understand the 
facilitators, barriers, and critical factors to implement specific 
violence prevention strategies and conduct program evaluation 
activities.
    CDC's DELTA Impact Program is an initiative focused on decreasing 
IPV risk factors and increasing IPV protective factors by increasing 
strategic data-driven planning and sustainable use of community and 
societal level primary prevention activities that address the social 
determinants of health (SDOH). Strategies described in the NOFO are 
based on the best available evidence and are included in CDC's 
technical package on IPV prevention. In addition, the program helps to 
further develop the evidence-base for community and societal level 
programs and policy efforts to prevent IPV by increasing the use of 
program evaluation and existing surveillance data at the state and 
local level. The goal of this information collection is to support 
CDC's program evaluation of the implementation and impact of the DELTA 
Impact NOFO and further understand the facilitators, barriers, and 
critical factors to implement specific violence prevention strategies 
and conduct related program evaluation activities. CDC will use 
information collected to inform its technical assistance, program 
improvement, and capacity building. It will also use the information to 
assess progress on NOFO goals and inform the

development of future funding opportunities.
    Data collection is designed to address the following key program 
evaluation questions:
    1. To what extent have funded Coalitions accomplished the short 
term and intermediate outcomes in the NOFO Logic Model?
    2. To what extent do recipients effectively implement community and 
societal level primary prevention programs and policy efforts during 
the project period?
    3. To what extent was there an increase in statewide capacity to 
implement, evaluate and sustain community and societal primary 
prevention of IPV?
    4. What factors are critical to implementing and sustaining 
community and societal level primary prevention approach to prevent 
IPV?
    CDC will use the information collected across all three years to 
understand each recipient's experiences and progress toward NOFO 
outcomes as well as to identify facilitators and barriers to program 
implementation. In addition, data collected in Project Year 3 and 4 
will inform adjustments in the type and level of technical assistance 
provided to recipients, as needed, to support attainment of the goals 
of the NOFO. Program evaluation activities allow CDC to identify and 
disseminate information about successful prevention strategies 
implemented by recipients. These functions are central to the NCIPC's 
broad mission of protecting Americans from violence and injury threats. 
The information collection will allow CDC to monitor the impact of the 
strategies implemented by the recipients on outcomes related to 
intimate partner violence prevention. It is also expected to reduce 
duplication of effort, enhance program impact and maximize the use of 
federal funds.
