    Proposed Project: Prevention and Wellness-Leveraging National 
Organizations--OMB No. 0990-New- Office of Public Health and Science 
(OPHS).
    Abstract: The Office of Public Health and Science is requesting an 
approval by OMB on a new collection. The American Recovery and 
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Prevention and Wellness- Leveraging National 
Organizations is a cooperative agreement program authorized under 42 
U.S.C. 300k-1, 300, section 1701 of the Public Health Service Act, as 
amended. The funding opportunity focuses on two categories of 
activities:
     Category A: Obesity prevention through improved nutrition 
and increased physical activity
     Category B: Tobacco prevention and control
    The National Organizations who receive funding will be supporting 
Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CPPW)-funded communities by 
providing expertise and technical assistance to help implement select 
MAPPS (Media, Access, Point of Purchase/Promotion, Pricing, and Social 
Support and Services) strategies through national organizations' 
systems and networks. The National Organizations will work to sustain 
community prevention efforts beyond Recovery Act CPPW funding and 
support the National Prevention Media Initiative through co-branding 
and augmenting HHS-developed media campaigns in communities.
    The outcome measures that will be collected from funded National 
Organizations include approval/enactment of MAPPS-related policy, 
systems, and environmental change in physical activity, nutrition, and 
tobacco in funded communities. Since a critical component of the 
National Organizations is to support and assist CPPW-funded communities 
with their expert resources, the National Organizations and the CPPW-
funded communities will share ownership of the same outcome measures. 
Because the National Organizations and their local affiliates have a 
distinct supporting role in these community-

wide efforts, the output measures track the kinds of added value to be 
derived from involvement of the National Organizations and its local 
affiliates in the community-wide efforts which should help drive the 
outcome measure.
