Proposed Project: An Assessment of the Sustainability and Impact of
Community Coalitions Once Federal Funding Has Expired--OMB No. 0990-
NEW--Assistant Secretary Planning Evaluation (ASPE).
Abstract: The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and
Evaluation (ASPE) is requesting Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
approval on a new collection to conduct a survey of community
coalitions formerly funded by the Community Access Program (CAP)/
Healthy Communities Access Program (HCAP) to learn about their
sustainability and impact post-federal funding. ASPE will use the CAP/
HCAP experience to examine the long-term sustainability of coalitions
that successfully completed for grant funding from the Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS). As part of the study, a one-time,
self-administered survey will be administered to the 260 coalitions
funded through CAP/HCAP, providing a unique set of data to assess
coalition sustainability and the factors that enable and hinder
sustainability. The survey will focus on CAP/HCAP coalitions'
structure, funding, activities, impact, and outcomes post-funding. The
survey design and content is informed by a review of the literature on
community coalitions including coalition organization, functions,
impact, and sustainability. Results from the survey will also inform
the selection of sites for key informant interviews and site visits.
Specifically, telephone interviews will occur with a subset of 20 CAP/
HCAP coalitions that have been sustained as well as 20 CAP/HCAP
coalitions that have not been sustained. The key informant interviews
will utilize a structured instrument tailored to the coalitions'
experiences. Site visits will be conducted with seven coalitions that
were sustained post-funding. Data collection activities will be
completed within 18 months of OMB Clearance.
