represent a broad range of research, 

practice, and policy expertise in 

prevention, wellness, health promotion, 

and public health. The CPSTF was 

convened in 1996 by the Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS) to 

identify community preventive 

programs, services, and policies that 

increase healthy longevity, save lives 

and dollars, and improve Americans’ 

quality of life. CDC is mandated to 

provide ongoing administrative, 

research, and technical support for the 

operations of the CPSTF. During its 

meetings, the CPSTF considers the 

findings of systematic reviews on 

existing research and practice-based 

evidence and issues recommendations. 

CPSTF recommendations are not 

mandates for compliance or spending. 

Instead, they provide information about 

evidence-based options that decision 

makers and stakeholders can consider 

when they are determining what best 

meets the specific needs, preferences, 

available resources, and constraints of 

their jurisdictions and constituents. The 

CPSTF’s recommendations, along with 

the systematic reviews of the evidence 

on which they are based, are compiled 

in The Community Guide. 

Matters Proposed for Discussion: 

Cardiovascular Disease Prevention 

(Pharmacy-Based Interventions to 

Increase Medication Adherence); Mental 

Health (Effectiveness of School-Based 

Depression and Anxiety Prevention 

Interventions); Cancer Prevention and 

Control (Community Health Worker 

Interventions to Improve Screening 

Rates for Breast, Colorectal, and Cervical 

Cancer); Health Equity (Supportive 

Housing Policies to Address 

Homelessness); Obesity Prevention and 

Control (Combined School-Based Diet 

and Physical Activity Interventions); 

Economic Review (Active Travel to 

School); and discussion of Community 

Guide effectiveness methods. The 

agenda is subject to change without 

notice. 

Roybal Campus Security Guidelines: 

The Edward R. Roybal Campus is the 

headquarters of the CDC and is located 

at 1600 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta, 

Georgia. The meeting is being held in a 

Federal government building; therefore, 

Federal security measures are 

applicable. 

All meeting attendees must register by 

the dates outlined under MEETING 

ACCESSABILITY. In planning your 

arrival time, please take into account the 

need to park and clear security. All 

visitors must enter the Edward R. 

Roybal Campus through the front 

entrance on Clifton Road. Vehicles may 

be searched, and the guard force will 

then direct visitors to the designated 

parking area. Upon arrival at the facility, 

visitors must present government-issued 

photo identification (e.g., a valid federal 

identification badge, state driver’s 

license, state non-driver’s identification 

card, or passport). Non-United States 

citizens must complete the required 

security paperwork prior to the meeting 

date and must present a valid passport, 

visa, Permanent Resident Card, or other 

type of work authorization document 

upon arrival at the facility. Instructions 

for completing the required security 

paperwork will be provided after 

registration. All persons entering the 

building must pass through a metal 

detector. CDC Security personnel will 

issue a visitor’s ID badge at the entrance 

to Building 19. Visitors may receive an 

escort to the meeting room. All items 

brought to HHS/CDC are subject to 

inspection.

items specified under 42 CFR 71 

subpart F.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies 

must obtain approval from the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for each 

collection of information they conduct 

or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also 

requires Federal agencies to provide a 

60-day notice in the Federal Register 

concerning each proposed collection of 

information, including each new 

proposed collection, each proposed 

extension of existing collection of 

information, and each reinstatement of 

previously approved information 

collection before submitting the 

collection to the OMB for approval. To 

comply with this requirement, we are 

publishing this notice of a proposed 

data collection as described below. 

The OMB is particularly interested in 

comments that will help: 

1. 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; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. 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 submissions 

of responses. 

5. Assess information collection costs.
