Provide written comments within 30 days of notice publication. Proposed Project Division of Diabetes Translation Programmatic & Participant User Experience Data Collection (DDTDC)—New—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Division of Diabetes Translation (DDT) plays a crucial role in helping prevent Type 2 diabetes, reducing diabetes complications and disability, and reducing diabetes-related disparities across the United States. DDT accomplishes this by providing education, training, technical assistance (TA), and engaging in communication/marketing activities for various key audiences. These customers include national, state, and local partners, grantees, providers (
                    *e.g.,*
                     lifestyle coaches, diabetes educators, healthcare providers, health/medical and community-based organizations), people with prediabetes, diabetes and their family, friends, and caregivers, and other consumers of DDT products and programs. For DDT to be able to efficiently and effectively do this work and fulfill its mission, it needs to be able to collect information and feedback from intended audiences in a timely manner and with enough frequency to ensure DDT can deliver clear, effective, efficient, and appropriate customer service. This includes, for instance, collecting data on key audiences' needs and on the reach, uptake, use, customer experience and satisfaction with DDT's services, products, and related programs, including its education, training, TA and communications services and products. However, in the interest of timely provision of services, DDT often forgoes the important step of getting input from its key audiences on the clarity, efficiency, effectiveness, and appropriateness of the services and resources it develops and provides for them. Skipping this information collection step, or doing so with less frequency, avoids the delay involved in the standard OMB review process, but increases the risk of DDT wasting both time and money developing and providing education, training, TA, and communication/marketing that will not achieve the intended objectives and will be unclear, irrelevant, or not fully meet the needs of DDT's audiences. It can also have other unintended consequences, such as jeopardizing the credibility of Federal health officials. The Division of Diabetes Translation Programmatic & Participant User Experience Data Collection (DDTDC) will enable DDT to collect the information they require in a timely manner to: Provide clear, effective, efficient, appropriate, and timely education, communication, training, and technical( print page 90704)
                    assistance to key audiences and other interested groups, including consumer audiences (
                    *e.g.,*
                     people with prediabetes, diabetes, and their family, friends, and caregivers), providers (
                    *e.g.,*
                     lifestyle coaches, diabetes care and education specialists, healthcare and other providers, health/medical and community-based organizations); and partners (national, state, and local partners).
Ensure quality and prevent duplication in the development and dissemination of prevention and health information and program activities by DDT to consumers, providers, and state and local partners.
Conduct exploratory/formative assessments to inform DDT's development of education, communication/marketing, training, and programmatic materials, tools, and resources to support and improve the prevention and management of diabetes. For example, identifying key audiences' knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, motivators, and information needs.
Assess the impact of programs, messages, educational and training materials among recipients and determine to what extent they meet relevant service-related DDT objectives and goals. The following are examples of the areas of focus that the data collection activities under this generic information collection mechanism may include: Reach, uptake, use, customer experience, and satisfaction with the CDC-recognized lifestyle change programs for type 2 diabetes prevention, as well as related outcomes (*e.g.,*
                     participant retention and recruitment rates).
Satisfaction with CDC-recognized lifestyle change programs toolkits, such as the Personal Success Tool and Champion toolkits.
Reach, uptake, use, customer experience, and satisfaction with diabetes education, type 2 prevention, and diabetes management innovations (such as the Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support services promotion initiative) and related short-term effects on knowledge, awareness, practices (such as information seeking), and outcomes (such as enrollment of people with diabetes or prediabetes).
Reach, uptake, satisfaction, customer experience, and short-term outcomes of CDC's training and technical assistance resources (such as a webinar or online toolkit).
Needs assessments for customer experience with, utilization of, and short-term outcomes of technical assistance and trainings for diabetes prevention and management.
Understandability, ease of use, and appropriateness of diabetes education messages, toolkits, programs, and marketing materials.
Exploratory assessments of knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, beliefs, barriers, and facilitators to uptake and use of lifestyle change programs for diabetes type 2 prevention and diabetes management services and related innovations, resources, tools, and materials. Data collection methods proposed include, but are not limited to in-depth individual interviews, cognitive interviews, intercept interviews, group-based discussions (including focus groups and dyads/triads), surveys or questionnaires, knowledge assessments, observational assessments, and implementation and utilization data reporting. Respondents would include key audiences and stakeholders of CDC's work, including representatives of state and local DDT-funded organizations; national, state, and local DDT partners (not CDC-funded); providers of type 2 diabetes prevention and diabetes management programs and services, including lifestyle coaches, diabetes care and educations specialists, healthcare and other providers; heath/medical and community-based organizations implementing programs and services related to type 2 diabetes prevention and diabetes management; people with—and at risk for—diabetes or with prediabetes; family, friends, and caregivers of people with—and at risk for—diabetes or with prediabetes. As the methods for data collection and audiences may vary with each request submitted under this proposed generic clearance, for each data collection request unique instruments (
                    *e.g.,*
                     surveys, interview guides) will be developed to address the specific topics that information will be collected on. Questions to be asked may focus, for example, on collecting data on the audiences' needs and on the reach, uptake, use, customer experience and satisfaction with DDT's services, products, and programs. Such information will enable DDT to identify ways to improve its services, products, and programs to better meet its audiences' needs and achieve its mission of supporting the prevention of diabetes and reducing diabetes-related complications and disparities across the United States. CDC requests a three-year approval for 6,000 burden hours for this proposed Generic package. Based on projections, the estimated annualized hourly burden anticipated for all data collection methods would total 2,000 hours and include eight to ten data collection activities over the course of a year. There is no cost to the respondents other than their time. Estimated Annualized Burden Hours
