Proposed Project
Indicators of the Performance of Local, State, Territorial, and
Tribal Education Agencies in HIV Prevention, Coordinated School Health
Program, and Asthma Management Activities for Adolescent and School
Health Programs--Reinstatement--National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The proposed project is an annual Web-based questionnaire to assess
programmatic activities among local education agencies (LEA) and state,
territorial, and tribal government education agencies (SEAs, TEAs, and
TGs) funded by the Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH),
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The questionnaires are
referred to as the Indicators for School Health Programs.
Currently, the Indicators for School Health Programs are the only
standardized annual reporting process for HIV prevention activities or
coordinated school health program (CSHP) activities funded by DASH.
There is no other standardized annual reporting process for HIV
prevention activities or coordinated school health program (CSHP)
activities among LEAs and SEAs/TEAs/TGs funded by DASH. The data being
gathered via the questionnaires: (1) Provides standardized information
about how HIV prevention, CSHP/physical activity, nutrition, and
tobacco (PANT) use, and asthma management funds are used by LEAs and
SEAs/TEAs/TGs; (2) assesses the extent to which programmatic
adjustments are indicated; (3) provides descriptive and process
information about program activities; and (4) provides greater
accountability for use of public funds. The questionnaires are
completed by the DASH-funded partners on a Web site managed by DASH.
The questionnaires are to be completed ninety days after the end of
each fiscal year.
The Web-based questionnaires correspond to the specific funding
source from the Division of Adolescent and School Health: two
questionnaires pertain to HIV-prevention program activities among LEAs
and SEAs/TEAs/TGs; one pertains to CSHP/PANT activities among SEAs/TGs;
and one pertains to asthma management activities among LEAs.
Two HIV prevention questionnaires include questions on project
planning, materials distribution, professional development activities,
provision of technical assistance, collaboration with external
partners, and reducing health disparities among populations at
disproportionate risk. CDC plans to implement minor changes in the HIV
questionnaires beginning in year 2 of this clearance period.
The CSHP/PANT questionnaire focuses on the activities above as well
as on physical activity, healthy eating, and tobacco-use prevention
activities. CDC plans to implement minor changes in the CSHP/PANT
questionnaire beginning in year 2 of this clearance period.
The asthma management questionnaire includes questions on project
planning, materials distribution, professional development activities,
provision of technical assistance, collaboration with external
partners, reducing health disparities among populations at
disproportionate risk, and health services. Information collection on
asthma management programs will begin in year 2 of this clearance
period.
There are no costs to respondents other than their time to complete
the survey.
The total estimated annualized burden hours are 783.
