Comments 

A 60-day Notice requesting public 

comment was published in the Federal 

Register on September 7, 2023 at 88 FR 

61575. This comment period ended 

November 6, 2023. One public comment 

was received from this notice. The 

comment received inquired about (1) 

data collection and data ownership, (2) 

the purpose and need for the Public 

Health AmeriCorps Technical 

Assistance and Training Form, and (3) 

the length of the Public Health 

AmeriCorps Outcome Evaluation Draft 

survey. Responses are: 

• All data collected will be managed 

and securely stored by the contractor 

and delivered to the AmeriCorps Office 

of Research and Evaluation (ORE) in 

aggregate form during the contract term, 

and after the contract ends, will be 

delivered to ORE as a de-identified 

public use data file and a restricted use 

data file. ORE will securely store the 

data and AmeriCorps programs will not 

have access to the data except in 

aggregate form, upon request. 

• The Public Health AmeriCorps 

Technical Assistance and Training form 

was a requested instrument from the 

program team. This instrument will 

allow for the contractor to distill any 

information that wasn’t already 

collected in the grantee survey or focus 

group guide. The instrument will be 

used as a supplemental tool to capture 

any additional information that wasn’t 

collected in other activities. 

• The evaluation team has been 

mindful of the length and burden of the 

member survey. The survey has gone 

through several iterations and has been 

shortened. The contractor piloted the 

instrument with up to nine members 

and conducted cognitive interviews 

after the members completed the survey. 

The version the contractor piloted took 

participants on average less than 30 

minutes to complete and participants 

did not express dissatisfaction with the 

length of the survey. The reason for 

keeping questions that are also found in 

the Member Exit Survey (MES) is that 

participants in the Public Health 

AmeriCorps evaluation might not 

complete the MES, and consequently it 

would not be possible to merge the two 

surveys. It is important for the Public 

Health AmeriCorps survey to include 

complete data to address the evaluation 

questions and to create more complete 

datasets across the agency. We want to 

ensure we close any gaps (intake 

information and member surveys) and 

confirm information already received. 

The purpose of reaching out to members 

who exited early is to better understand 

their experience and the challenges they 

encountered in completing their service. 

This data may inform programmatic 

changes with the aim of minimizing 

attrition among members. We will also 

benchmark the Public Health 

AmeriCorps survey to other similar 

public health program to see how Public 

Health AmeriCorps is achieving the goal 

of creating a pathway to public health 

careers. 

Title of Collection: Evaluation of 

Public Health AmeriCorps. 

OMB Control Number: 3045–NEW. 

Type of Review: New. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals and Households 

(AmeriCorps Members) and Businesses 

and Organizations (Grantees). 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 2,198. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 2,097. 

Abstract: The evaluation will examine 

the extent to which Public Health 

AmeriCorps is progressing toward its 

goals to address public health needs and 

develop the next generation of public 

health leaders. The evaluation will 

answer questions about the challenges 

and successes with program 

implementation, recruitment and 

retention of members, partnership 

between grantees and other 

organizations such as state and local 

health departments, members’ career 

intentions, and members’ professional 

development. This information 

collection request includes several 

information collection instruments: a 

member alumni survey, an early exit 

survey, a grantee survey, a training and 

technical assistance form, grantee focus 

group questions, early exit interview 

questions, and partner interview 

questions. The burden hour per 

response for each of these instruments 

ranges from 15 minutes to an hour and 

a half. Throughout the evaluation design 

process, AmeriCorps received feedback 

and guidance from partners and 

advisory groups, including AmeriCorps 

staff, CDC staff, and public health and 

public health workforce professionals. 

This is a new information collection.

Director, Office of Research and Evaluation.
