Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publishes a 
list of information collection requests under review by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these requests, call 
the CDC Reports Clearance Officer at (404) 639-4766 or send an e-mail 
to [email protected]. Send written comments to CDC Desk Officer, Office of 
Management and Budget, Washington, DC or by fax to (202) 395-6974. 
Written comments should be received within 30 days of this notice.

Proposed Project

    Information Network (REACH IN)-Extension-National Center for 
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for 
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health 2010 (REACH 2010) 
currently funds forty local coalitions to establish community based 
programs and culturally appropriate interventions to eliminate racial 
and ethnic health disparities. Two previously funded grantees also 
retain access to the system. Communities served by REACH 2010 include: 
African American, American Indian, Hispanic American, Asian American, 
and Pacific Islander. These communities select among infant mortality, 
deficits in breast and cervical cancer screening and management, 
cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, and deficits in childhood 
and adult immunizations to focus their interventions. Guided by logic 
models, each community articulates goals, objectives, and related 
activities; tracks whether goals and objectives are met, ongoing, or 
revised; and evaluates all program activities. This information is then 
entered into the REACH Information Network (REACH IN). REACH IN is a 
customized internet-based support system that allows REACH 2010 
grantees to perform remote data entry and retrieval of data.
    This support system is designed to create on-demand graphs and 
reports of grantees' activities and accomplishments, monitor progress 
toward the achievement of goals and objectives, and share and 
synthesize information across grantees' activities. Both quantitative 
and qualitative analyses can be performed. These analyses relate 
primarily to three stages of the REACH 2010 logic model: capacity 
building, targeted actions (interventions), and community and systems 
change and change among change agents. Users are supported with 
technical assistance and training, covering the usage of the system 
from a content/project goals perspective, and technical operations.
    The annualized estimated burden is based on 42 respondents, 
including 40 currently funded grantees and two that were funded 
previously who retain access to the system. It is estimated that they 
each use the system four times a year to enter data, each data entry 
taking about 30 minutes.
    There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. The 
total estimated annualized burden hours are 84.
