Proposed Project
National HIV Prevention Program
Monitoring and Evaluation (NHM&E))—
Revision—National Center for HIV/
AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is requesting approval for a
revision of a previously approved
project and a change in project name.
The initial PEMS OMB request was
approved October 6, 2005, for one year
and reinstated August 22, 2007, for
three years.
The purpose of this revision is to
collect standardized HIV prevention
program evaluation data from health
departments and community-based
organizations (CBOs) who receive
Federal funds for HIV prevention
activities. Grantees have the option of
using CDC’s web-based PEMS software
application or other approved software
that the grantee may elect to utilize.
Since the data collection approval in
2007, program evaluation data
collection has proceeded in phases. The
last phase, the collection and reporting
of Partner Services data, is scheduled to
begin in July 2010.
The evaluation and reporting process
is necessary to ensure that CDC receives
standardized, accurate, thorough
evaluation data from both health
department and CBO grantees. For these
reasons, CDC developed standardized
NHM&E variables and an optional
electronic reporting system (PEMS)
through extensive consultation with
representatives from health
departments, CBOs, and national
partners (e.g., The National Alliance of
State and Territorial AIDS Directors,
Urban Coalition of HIV/AIDS
Prevention Services, and National
Minority AIDS Council).
CDC requires CBOs and health
departments who receive federal funds
for HIV prevention to report nonidentifying, client-level, standardized
evaluation data to: (1) Accurately
determine the extent to which HIV
prevention efforts are carried out, what
types of agencies are providing services,
what resources are allocated to those
services, to whom services are being
provided, and how these efforts have
contributed to a reduction in HIV
transmission; (2) improve ease of
reporting to better meet these data
needs; and (3) be accountable to
stakeholders by informing them of HIV
prevention activities and use of funds in
HIV prevention nationwide.
CDC HIV prevention program grantees
will collect, enter, and report general
agency information, program model and
budget data, and client demographics
and behavioral risk characteristics. If
using the PEMS, data collection will
include searching existing data sources,
gathering and maintaining data,
document compilation, review of data,
and data entry into the web-based
system.
The following changes have occurred
since project 0920–0696 has been
implemented: (1) The term ‘‘PEMS’’
currently refers only to CDC’s webbased data collection and transmission
software. In order to refer to data
variables, the revised project uses the
term ‘‘National HIV prevention program
monitoring and evaluation’’ (NHM&E)
data rather than ‘‘PEMS’’ data; and, (2)
many data variables that were
previously required are currently made
optional in order to reduce data
reporting burden on grantees. The
revised collection anticipates a
significant increase in the number of
grantees and activities to be funded and
provides additional optional variables
for use by CBOs in outcome evaluation
and special evaluation projects.
There are no additional costs to
respondents other than their time.

(in hours)
The Prevention Research Centers
(PRC) Program was established by
Congress through the Health Promotion
and Disease Prevention Amendments of
1984. PRCs conduct outcomes-oriented
health promotion and disease
prevention research on a broad range of
topics using a multi-disciplinary and
community-based approach. CDC
manages the PRC program and currently
provides funding to PRC grantees that
are housed within schools of public
health, medicine, or osteopathy. Awards
are made for five years and renewed
through a competitive application
process.
CDC is currently approved to collect
progress and performance information
about PRCs through the PRC
Information System (IS), a Web-based
application (OMB no. 0920–0650, exp.
8/31/2010). The performance
information is used to track each PRC’s
progress toward, and achievement of,
the objectives established by the PRC
Program and the PRC’s individual work
plan, including indicators related to
research projects, products resulting
from those projects, trainings related to
those projects, and partnerships.
Information has been collected through
the PRC IS twice per year.
In the next approval period,
information collection will be
restructured around a revised set of
performance indicators and revised
information collection methodology.
The frequency of reporting will be
reduced to once per year, however,
reporting will be divided into two parts.
The first information collection will be
conducted electronically utilizing
Survey Monkey, a more user-friendly
Web-based survey system. This
information collection will include the
following: (1) PRC involvement with
State and local health departments and
other government agencies, (2) number
and characteristics of research projects,
(3) number of training programs
delivered, (4) number of people trained,
and (5) number of students trained. The
second information collection will
consist of a telephone interview with a
key contact for each PRC grantee. The
data will include the: (1) Number of
new people hired, (2) number of
contracts entered into and supported by
PRC core funds, and (3) number of
effective interventions. Although the
number of respondents will increase
from 33 to 37 PRCs, the proposed
changes will result in a net decrease in
the total estimated annualized burden to
respondents, due primarily to a decrease
in the burden per respondent.
OMB approval is being requested for
a three-year period with a start date of
June 1, 2010. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The
total estimated burden hours are 259.
