changes to the data collection 

instrument. 

The YRBS assesses priority health risk 

behaviors related to the major 

preventable causes of mortality, 

morbidity, and social problems among 

both youth and young adults in the 

United States. Data on health risk 

behaviors of adolescents are the focus of 

approximately 65 national health 

objectives in Healthy People 2030, an 

initiative of the U.S. Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS). The 

YRBS provides data to measure 14 

Healthy People 2030 objectives. In 

addition, the YRBS can identify racial 

and ethnic disparities in health risk 

behaviors. No other national source of 

data measures as many of the Healthy 

People 2030 objectives addressing 

adolescent health risk behaviors as the 

YRBS. The data also will have 

significant implications for policy and 

program development for school health 

programs nationwide. 

In Spring 2025 and Spring 2027, the 

YRBS will be conducted among 

nationally representative samples of 

students attending public and private 

schools in Grades 9–12, and in 2025, the 

validation study will be conducted 

among a convenience sample of schools 

and students. Information supporting 

the YRBS also will be collected from 

state-, district-, and school-level 

administrators and teachers. The table 

below reports the number of 

respondents annualized over the threeyear project period. The total estimated 

annualized burden hours are 4,388. 

There are no costs to respondents other 

than their time.

Recommendations 

AGENCY: Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC), Department of Health 

and Human Services (HHS). 

ACTION: Notice with comment period. 

SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of 

its continuing effort to reduce public 

burden and maximize the utility of 

government information, invites the 

general public and other federal 

agencies the opportunity to comment on 

a proposed information collection, as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995. This notice invites 

comment on a proposed information 

collection project titled Global Public 

Health Data Innovation Performance 

Monitoring. This data collection is 

designed to help government decision 

makers gather timely, accurate, and 

comprehensive public health data to 

effectively prevent, detect, and respond 

to public health threats. 

DATES: CDC must receive written 

comments on or before April 9, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

identified by Docket No. CDC–2024– 

0011 by either of the following methods: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the 

instructions for submitting comments. 

• Mail: Jeffrey M. Zirger, Information 

Collection Review Office, Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 

Clifton Road NE, MS H21–8, Atlanta, 

Georgia 30329. 

Instructions: All submissions received 

must include the agency name and 

Docket Number. CDC will post, without 

change, all relevant comments to 

www.regulations.gov. 

Please note: Submit all comments 

through the Federal eRulemaking portal 

(www.regulations.gov) or by U.S. mail to 

the address listed above. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To 

request more information on the 

proposed project or to obtain a copy of 

the information collection plan and 

instruments, contact Jeffrey M. Zirger,

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 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1

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; 

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; and 

5. Assess information collection costs. 

Proposed Project 

Global Public Health Data Innovation 

(GPHDI) Performance Monitoring— 

New—Global Health Center (GHC), 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Global Public Health Data 

Innovation (GPHDI) initiative, led by the 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC), aims to equip 

government decision makers with 

timely, accurate, and comprehensive 

public health data to effectively prevent, 

detect, and respond to public health 

threats. Challenges, such as limited data 

access, non-standardization, workforce 

limitations, and gaps in data systems 

and governance, often hinder the 

optimal use of data in public health 

response efforts. To overcome these 

challenges, GPHDI focuses on 

strengthening global outbreak response, 

pandemic preparedness, and 

surveillance through improved data 

availability and utilization. This is 

achieved by modernizing data systems 

and processes at all levels. 

GPHDI is made possible by the 

American Rescue Plan Act passed by 

the Congress in 2021 and is rooted in 

key strategic pillars within CDC, namely 

the Data Modernization Initiative (DMI) 

and the Global Digital Health Strategy 

(GDHS). DMI is an agency-wide 

initiative aimed at improving data 

systems infrastructure within the United 

States. It offers valuable insights and 

artifacts that can be adapted and 

leveraged for the global context of the 

GPHDI initiative. The goal of DMI is to 

get better, faster, actionable insights for 

decision making at all levels of public 

health. Complementing this, the GDHS 

incorporates inputs from a multi-partner 

engagement process, enhancing the 

strategic approach of the initiative. 

GPHDI is a current three-year 

investment that builds on an existing 

foundation laid by various country 

governments, donor agencies, and 

multilateral organizations. This 

investment is specifically allocated to 

advance the initiative in 10 selected 

countries, including Kenya, Sierra 

Leone, Uganda, and Zambia in Africa; 

Colombia and Paraguay in the South 

American Region; Georgia and Ukraine 

in Eastern Europe; Thailand in the 

Central Asia Region; and Honduras in 

the Central American Region. This data 

collection is aimed at monitoring and 

assessing the contributions of current 

GPHDI investments in data 

modernization and digital public health 

infrastructure towards improving data 

availability to prevent, detect, and 

respond to public health threats in the 

selected countries. The indicators to be 

collected include both structured 

response-type questions (Yes-No 

answers, coded answers) and narrative 

response-type questions. CDC 

contractors, RTI International (RTI) will 

conduct the interviews and CDC funded 

implementing partners (IPs) monitoring 

and evaluation (M&E) point of contacts 

will provide responses to the indicators 

based on their funded activities. RTI 

will document the responses from the 

interviews using CDC RedCap. 

Interviews will be conducted in a live 

one-on-one session between RTI and 

identified M&E point of contacts at the 

funded IPs. No patient-level or 

individual level or identifiable data will 

be collected for this project. 

CDC requests OMB approval for an 

estimated 64 annual burden hours. 

Respondents will be responding to this 

data collection as a part of the 

organizations’ funding requirements and 

obligation. There is no cost to 

respondents other than their time to 

participate.
