In compliance with the requirement
of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Office of the Secretary (OS), Department
of Health and Human Services, is
publishing the following summary of
proposed collections for public
comment.
Type of Information Collection
Request: New collection, regular.
Title of Information Collection:
Evaluation of HIV Prevention Program
in Women.
Form/OMB No.: OS–0990–New.
This notice replaces a previous notice
for the same information collection
published on March 13, 2005. We are
republishing this notice in order to
provide more accurate information
about the numbers of clients serviced by
funded programs. The two primary
differences between this notice and the
previously published notice are the
increase in burden from 147.5 hours to
1,635 hours and the number of
respondents from 218 to 552. This
increase is caused by data collection
forms associated with only one type of
respondent, program staff. Respondents
are required to complete these forms for
each person utilizing their service. The
enhanced information regarding the
number of clients served increased the
burden. The new burden more
accurately reflects the number of
responses per respondent required to
conduct the pre-post methodology of
this evaluation of knowledge and risk
behaviors.
Use: The Office on Women’s Health
(OWH) has instituted an HIV Prevention
Program in Women. As part of their

evaluation of the HIV Prevention
Program for Women, the OWH is
seeking a new clearance to conduct data
collection activities associated with the
evaluation of funded programs. The
evaluation is designed to determine best
practices and clearly define the gendercentered approach to HIV/AIDS
prevention. The HIV/AIDS programs to
be evaluated are the Model Mentorship,
Incarcerated/Newly Released Women
and HIV prevention in the rural south.
The program consists of individual
community-based organizations from
across the country. The evaluation
results will assess how successful the
OWH program is at meeting its
overarching goals: to increase HIV
prevention knowledge and reduce the
risk of contracting HIV among young
minority women.
Awarded contractors participating in
the HIV Prevention Program in Women
and stakeholders in the HIV Prevention
service area will provide data that are
necessary to conduct the evaluation.
Stakeholders will provide data on (1)
the number of women served with HIV/
AIDS; (2) the network of services (and
programs) available in those
communities, including programs
offered by their particular center or
agency; (3) the challenges and barriers
to service implementation faced by
providers; (4) the unique and general
challenges and barriers to service faced
by women with HIV/AIDS; (5) the
general impression of perceived need
for services (as opposed to identified
need); and (6) the sources of funding for
their HIV/AIDS prevention services in
general and those for women in
particular. Awarded contractors will
provide data on the number of women
served, client demographics, type and
number of services provided, client
outcomes, client utilization, and service
capacity. Clients of awarded contractors
will also participate in a client
utilization survey. The data provided
will be utilized to evaluate the overall
performance of the HIV Prevention
Program in Women. This information
will also be used to develop a
comprehensive framework from which
to analyze the relationship between
surveillance data and HIV prevention
service gap and to carry out a
comparative analysis to determine best
practices for HIV prevention among
women.
