SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: The RHY Program has a 

requirement to collect information from 

all youth who receive shelter and 

supportive services with RHY funding. 

In April 2015, the Administration on 

Children, Youth and Families, through 

a formal Memorandum of 

Understanding, integrated the RHY data 

collection with the U.S. Department of 

Housing and Urban Development’s 

(HUD) HMIS and HUD’s data standards 

along with other federal partners. HUD 

has OMB approval for HUD’s data 

standards and ACF has approval under 

a separate OMB number for the RHY 

data elements. The data collection effort 

includes universal data elements that 

are collected by all federal partners and 

RHY program specific elements, which 

are tailored to the RHY Program using 

HUD’s HMIS. 

Respondents: Youth who receive 

emergency and longer-term shelter and 

supportive services under RHY funding.

Information Collection Request Title: 

National Survey of Organ Donation 

Attitudes and Practices (NSODAP) OMB 

No. 0915–0290—Revision with changes. 

Abstract: The overall purpose of this 

study is to conduct an independent 

multi-mode (web and telephone) survey 

of public opinion regarding various 

issues related to organ donation. The 

survey will measure public opinion on 

issues such as willingness to become an 

organ donor, financial incentives for 

donation, living donation, impediments 

to donation, and level of public 

knowledge about donation. Previous 

NSODAPs were conducted during 1993, 

2005, 2012, and 2019. Similar to the 

2019 survey, the goal is to complete 

10,000 interviews with adults (18 years 

of age or older) nationwide. Specifically, 

this will include 1,000 equal-probability 

of selection method computer-assisted 

telephone interviewing (CATI) 

interviews, 1,000 ethnic oversamples 

CATI interviews, and a supplemental 

web panel of 8,000 respondents. The 

final sample will include 1,000 

interviews each with Black/African 

Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and 

Native Americans, and a statistically 

sufficient sample for meaningful 

comparisons across demographic levels 

of age group, education, and income 

groups. A total sample of 10,000 is 

necessary to achieve sufficiently large 

subgroups for statistical analysis across 

demographic groups. 

Need and Proposed Use of the 

Information: The Division of 

Transplantation, within the Health 

Systems Bureau of HRSA at the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services, is the primary federal entity 

responsible for oversight of the solid 

organ and blood stem cell transplant 

systems in the United States and for 

initiatives to increase organ donor 

registration and donation. Sponsorship 

of a national survey on the American 

public’s donation attitudes and 

practices is one of the services that the 

Division of Transplantation provides for 

the larger donation community, 

consistent with its legal authority to 

establish a public education and 

awareness program (section 377A of the 

Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. 

274f–1). 

Patients in need of organ 

transplantation in the United States face 

a longstanding critical shortage of 

organs. Approximately 103,000 

Americans were on the waiting list for 

transplantation by the end of 2022, but 

only 42,000 transplants were performed, 

only meeting two-fifths of the national 

need. While this represents an increase 

in the number of transplants performed 

in 2021, the organ shortage remains in 

the United States. Understanding public 

attitudes about organ donation and how 

the attitudes change over time is critical 

to addressing organ shortage through 

public awareness and education efforts. 

The information from this survey will 

facilitate appropriate tailoring and 

targeting of donation outreach messages 

and strategies and provide an overall 

assessment of the impact of previous 

outreach messages and strategies. The 

data will also inform the development 

of policies related to organ donation and 

transplantation. 

Likely Respondents: A nationally 

representative sample of adults over the 

age of 18 with a higher number of 

responses from populations of interest 

such as racial-ethnic minorities, 

including African American, Asian, 

Native American, and Hispanic 

respondents, as well as respondents of 

all age groups and education levels. 

Burden Statement: The modes of data 

collection are web surveys and CATI 

interviews and include both landline 

and cell phones. Respondent burden is 

minimized by having automatic data 

entry either electronically by the 

respondent answering the online survey 

or by a trained CATI interviewer for a 

telephone survey that includes no 

additional requirements for 

respondents. The survey will capture 

only the minimum necessary 

information for analysis and will take 

only about 22 minutes of the 

respondent’s time for the CATI survey 

and 16 minutes for the web survey. The 

questions are the same in both the CATI 

and web surveys, but prior research 

experience by the contractor has found 

web surveys take 25 percent less time to 

complete than the same survey 

conducted via phone, because
