Background and Brief Description

    Office of State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support is proposing 
to extend the formal, voluntary data collection that assesses the 
capacity of local boards of health to deliver the essential services of 
public health. Electronic data submission will be used when local 
boards of health complete the public health assessment.
    A three-year approval is being sought with the current data 
collection instrument. The data collection instrument has been valuable 
in assessing performance and capacity and identifying areas for 
improvement.
    From 1998-2002, the CDC National Public Health Performance 
Standards Program convened workgroups with the National Association of 
County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), The Association of State and 
Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), the National Association of Local 
Boards of Health (NALBOH), the American Public Health Association 
(APHA), and the Public Health Foundation (PHF) to develop performance 
standards for public health systems based on the essential services of 
public health. In 2005, CDC reconvened workgroups with these same 
organizations to revise the data collection instruments, in order to 
ensure the standards remain current and improve user friendliness. 
There is no cost to the respondent, other than their time. The 
estimated annualized burden hours are 875.
