Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 PRA
44 U.S.C. 35013520, 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 the OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a proposed data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agencys estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected;
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including using appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submissions of responses;
and 5. Assess information collection costs.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background and Brief Description The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC requests three-year OMB approval for the extension of a Generic information collection package OMB Control No. 09201235, Exp. 05/
31/2022 that supports collection of quantitative and qualitative information from adolescents ages 1119 and their parents/caregivers for the purpose of needs assessment and program refinement for programs and services to prevent HIV, other sexually transmitted diseases STDs, and pregnancy among middle and high school aged adolescents.
NCHHSTP conducts behavioral and health service assessments and research projects as part of its response to the domestic HIV/AIDS epidemic, STD
prevention, TB elimination and viral hepatitis control with national, state, and local partners. Adolescents are a population with specific developmental, health and social, and resource needs, and their health risk factors and access to health care are addressed as a primary mission by the Division of Adolescent and School Health DASH, and adolescents are a population of interest for several other NCHHSTP
divisions. The assessment and research conducted by NCHHSTP is one pillar upon which recommendations and guidelines are revised and updated.
Recommendations and guidelines for adolescent sexual risk reduction require that foundation of scientific evidence.
Assessment of programmatic practices for adolescents helps to assure effective and evidence-based sexual risk reduction practices and efficient use of resources. Such assessments also help to improve programs through better identification of strategies relevant to adolescents as a population as well as specific sub-groups of adolescents at highest risk for HIV and other STDs so that programs can be better tailored for them.
The information collection requests under this generic package are intended to allow for data collection with two types of respondents:
