by state service commissions is money well spent; performance measurement is one way to demonstrate that.

As the Comptroller General testified to Congress on May 22, 2013: ‘‘Performance measurement, because of its ongoing nature, can serve as an early warning system to management and a vehicle for improving accountability to the public. To help ensure that their performance information will be both useful and used by decision makers, agencies must consider the differing information of various users—including those in Congress.’’

One commenter requested additional clarity regarding the definition of community and private sector resources as indicated in the inputs section of the theory of change logic model and specifically whether this includes state
funds. CNCS has amended the application to clarify the intent is to capture all resources including those from the State, private funders or from Federal sources. The purpose is not to document sources of funding but the magnitude of resource commitment by the commission in addressing the community need and the strategies intended to be implemented by the

commission.

One person expressed a desire for examples and additional guidance on CNCS’s expectations for the theory of change logic model. CNCS intends to provide technical assistance prior to the
deadline for submission to assist commissions prepare their theory of change logic model and performance measures. CNCS expects to include examples at that time.

One commenter stated the narrative questions are narrowly focused on AmeriCorps and do not allow
commissions to articulate the breadth of their operations. CNCS recognizes that commission missions vary from state to state; however, all commissions are engaged in managing and overseeing AmeriCorps program grants. CNCS intends the questions provided in the guidance to be minimum starting points and not a specific limit on what may be
included in state commission applications. If an activity is included in the state service plan and the commission is dedicating Commission Support Grant resources to that effort, it
should be reflected in the commission’s application.

One commenter suggested that CNCS adopt a single open narrative instead of three-sections as proposed for 2014. CNCS considered a single narrative
section but decided that there were efficiency gains by being able to separately process information related to the distinct outreach and selection, compliance and performance, and collaboration and sustainability

sections.

Description: CNCS is seeking approval of the AmeriCorps State Commission Application Instructions. State service commissions will respond to the questions included in this Information Collection Request in order to report on their use of federal funds and progress against their annual plan.

Number 0720–TBD.

Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary to provide access to a comprehensive program of therapy, medical support, and social services for young Department of Defense (DoD) Military Health System (MHS) beneficiaries with special needs. Special Needs Program Management Information System (SNPMIS) is the MHS automated information system designed to ensure the DoD meets the unique information requirements associated with implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). SNPMIS captures records referral, evaluation, eligibility, and service plan data for children with special needs who are eligible for MHS services under IDEA.

additional services are needed. At the service level, activities of different

programs can be compared to determine best practices that can be implemented throughout the Educational and Developmental Intervention Services (EDIS) clinics. The system’s remote
function allows EDIS staff members to enter a young beneficiary’s data while conducting activities from that child’s
school or home.

Affected Public: Children of members
of the Armed Forces and civilians who are entitled to receive early intervention and special education services from
DoD under IDEA.

Annual Burden Hours: 1,775. Number of Respondents: 1,065. Responses per Respondent: 2. Total Annual Responses: 2,130. Average Burden per Response: 50
minutes.

Frequency: On occasion. Information is collected from the individual to whom the record pertains; reports from physicians and other medical department personnel; and reports and information from other sources including educational institutions, medical institutions, public and private health, and welfare agencies.

Information from the family may be collected during an intake meeting, a meeting to develop a service plan, as a result of provision of services, performance of an evaluation, or other
coordination activities. The EDIS clinic or Department of Defense Dependents School (DoDDS) school must obtain permission from the family before
information is collected from or provided to an external agency, and prior to conducting evaluations or providing services. Before information is released to an external agency the parents must sign a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) release.

Personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI) that are collected by the system includes: Name, Social Security Number (SSN), Family member prefix (FMP), Birth Date, Race/Ethnicity, Gender, Marital Status, Spouse Information, Child Information, Disability Information, Home, Personal Cell, and
Work Phone Numbers—Child and Parents, Emergency Contact, Education Information: Child’s School Address; Individual educational program plans, Sponsor Name, Sponsor SSN, Sponsor and Spouse rank or title, Sponsor’s unit, Other child care locations, Provider’s name and title that evaluate and provide intervention, Medical Information: Clinics and medical summaries, EDIS process and activities data including referral, evaluation, eligibility, and service plans. The Computer Security Act of 1987, which went into effect in September 1988, requires all U.S. government employees, contractors, and others who directly affect federal programs to undergo periodic training in computer security. All users of systems containing
sensitive data must also receive computer training corresponding to the sensitivity of the data to which they access. All persons who have access to
or who are users of SNPMIS must have an Information Technology Sensitive (IT) clearance level III or higher. SNPMIS users are health care providers and SNPMIS Technical Support Team. The health care providers have at least an IT II clearance, which allows them
access to basic functions of SNPMIS (i.e., data querying, viewing, and printing). SNPMIS Development Team
members have at least an IT II clearance. They have access to information regarding the creation and maintenance of user accounts, testing and system monitoring. They also perform SNPMIS audit setup and reviews, and set up roles and responsibilities. All SNPMIS users are subjected to the new hiring screening process associated with their position. Contractors, however, are required to complete a Standard Form 86 from which a National Agency Check with Inquiry’s (NACI) and credit check
can be conducted.
