# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

*Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:*                     Recruit Assessment Program; OMB Control Number 0703-MRAP.                

*Needs And Uses:*                     The Recruit Assessment Program (RAP) is a DoD-sponsored program for routine collection of baseline demographic, physical, psychological, environmental, and behavioral health data from recruits at Marine Corps Recruit Depots. While many other military surveys examine the health and well-being of service members, the RAP collects voluntary self-reported pre-military health data. These data are essential for: (1) Allowing researchers to examine and distinguish contributions of pre-military vs. military factors that influence service member health and career outcomes; (2) the development of early intervention programs to improve service member health and enhance career success; and (3) the examination of health trends across waves of military recruits over time. Understanding these factors contributes towards the development of health policy as well as recruiting and retention initiatives.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households.                

*Annual Burden Hours:*                     24,266.7.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     41,600.                

*Responses per Respondent:*                     1.                

*Annual Responses:*                     41,600.                

*Average Burden Per Response:*                     35 minutes.                

*Frequency:*                     Once per respondent.                

During the first week of boot camp, drill instructors escort recruits to a classroom setting to be supervised by RAP administrators for the next hour. Administrators provide recruits with a paper copy of the RAP survey, which includes consent forms, privacy, and HIPAA rights. Recruits receive a briefing about the purpose and voluntary nature of the survey as well as investigator contact information if they want to withdraw their consent later or have further questions. Administrators guide recruits through the consent, HIPAA and demographic portions of the survey using a PowerPoint presentation as a visual aid. The survey takes approximately 35 minutes to complete in total. After survey completion, administrators provide instructions on dismissal procedures. Administrators turn recruits over to their drill instructors and recruits return surveys to administrators as they exit the classroom.
