Act. Both programs will apply public 

health strategies to reduce tobacco use 

and exposure, improve nutrition, 

increase physical activity, and improve 

access to opportunities for chronic 

disease prevention, risk reduction, and 

management. 

The Partnerships to Improve 

Community Health (PICH) program 

(Funding Opportunity Announcement 

(FOA) DP14–1417) will promote the use 

of evidence- and practice-based 

strategies to create or strengthen healthy 

environments that make it easier for 

people to make healthy choices and take 

charge of their health. The 39 PICH 

awardees include both state and local 

governmental agencies and 

nongovernmental organizations. 

Awardees will work through multisector community coalitions of 

businesses, schools, nonprofit 

organizations, and other community 

organizations. Projects will serve three 

types of geographic areas: Large cities 

and urban counties, small cities and 

counties, and American Indian tribes. 

The new Racial and Ethnic 

Approaches to Community Health 

(REACH) cooperative agreement (FOA 

DP14–1419PPHF14) builds on previous 

REACH program activities that began in 

1999 with a focus on racial and ethnic 

communities experiencing health 

disparities. The 49 new REACH 

awardees include local governmental 

agencies, community-based 

nongovernmental organizations, tribes 

and tribal organizations, Urban Indian 

Health Programs, and tribal and 

intertribal consortia. Of these awardees, 

17 are receiving funds for basic 

implementation activities, and 32 are 

receiving funds to immediately expand 

their scope of work to improve health 

and reduce health disparities. REACH is 

financed in part by the Prevention and 

Public Health Fund of the Affordable 

Care Act. 

CDC proposes to collect information 

needed to assess and prioritize the 

training needs of PICH and REACH 

awardees and key collaborators. A DCH 

Training Needs Assessment survey will 

be conducted at two points in time: 

once near the beginning of the project 

period (approximately third quarter of 

2015) and again in the second year of 

the project period (last quarter of 2016). 

The first administration of the survey 

will provide an initial assessment of 

awardee needs at program start-up. The 

second administration of the needs 

assessment will identify any new or 

modified training needs that arise as 

awardees progress in their cooperative 

agreement activities. Questions within 

the needs assessment focus on awardee 

preferences for training modalities as 

well as facilitators and barriers to 

training access. 

Respondents will be staff members 

and coalition members associated with 

the 88 DCH awardees. Information will 

be requested from four individuals 

affiliated with each award: The 

principal investigator or program 

manager, the lead evaluation staff 

member, the lead media/

communications staff member, and a 

coalition member. The maximum 

number of respondents is 352 (88 

awardees × 4 respondents/awardee). 

Because the REACH and PICH awards 

aim to promote collaborative, multisector efforts, respondents will be 

associated with both private sector 

entities and state, local, and tribal 

government entities. 

The same survey instrument will be 

administered to all respondents, 

however the estimated burden per 

response varies according to the 

respondent’s project role and 

responsibilities. Information will be 

collected using a Web-based platform. 

Data collection and management will be 

conducted by a contractor on behalf of 

CDC. A telephone interview option is 

available for respondents who prefer 

this mode of participation. 

Findings will enable DCH to develop 

appropriate training activities that best 

support awardees’ community efforts to 

fulfill their funded objectives. 

OMB approval is requested for two 

years. Participation is voluntary and 

there are no costs to respondents other 

than their time. The total estimated 

annualized burden hours are 237.

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 OMB for 

approval. To comply with this 

requirement, we are publishing this 

notice of a proposed data collection as 

described below. 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology; and (e) estimates of capital 

or start-up costs and costs of operation, 

maintenance, and purchase of services 

to provide information. Burden means 

the total time, effort, or financial 

resources expended by persons to 

generate, maintain, retain, disclose or 

provide information to or for a Federal 

agency. This includes the time needed 

to review instructions; to develop, 

acquire, install and utilize technology 

and systems for the purpose of 

collecting, validating and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; to train 

personnel and to be able to respond to 

a collection of information, to search 

data sources, to complete and review 

the collection of information; and to 

transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information.
