Proposed Projects
Title: Developmental Disabilities
Program Independent Evaluation
Project.
OMB No.: 0970–0372.
Description: The National
Independent Study of the State
Developmental Disabilities Programs
(National Study) is an independent
(non-biased) study to examine through
rigorous and comprehensive research
procedures the three programs funded
under the Developmental Disabilities
Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of
2000 (DD Act): (1) State Councils on
Developmental Disabilities (SCDDs); (2)
State Protection and Advocacy Systems
for Individuals with developmental
disabilities (P&As); and (3) University
Centers for Excellence in Developmental
Disabilities (UCEDDs). The purpose of
the study is to assess program
effectiveness and achievements,
including collaborative efforts among
these state developmental disabilities
(DD) network programs. A component of
the study will be an examination of the
Administration on Developmental
Disabilities’ efficiency and effectiveness
to support these DD Network programs.
The results of this evaluation will
provide a report to the Administration
on Developmental Disabilities (ADD)
(the agency that administers these
programs) with information on the
effectiveness of its programs and
policies and serve as a way for ADD to
promote accountability to the public.
The independent study is a response
to accountability requirements for ADD
as identified in the Developmental
Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights
Act of 2000 (DD Act), the Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of
1993, and the Program Assessment
Rating Tool (PART), previously
administered by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB).
ADD has OMB approval for all the
evaluation tools (e.g., data collection
instruments) for this study, except a
new one being proposed. The new
evaluation tool would be an on-line
survey tool designed to collect data for
an assessment of ADD.
Respondents: For the ADD assessment
survey being added, the respondents
would be Staff of State Councils on
Developmental Disabilities, State
Protection and Advocacy Systems for
Individuals with developmental
disabilities, and University Centers for
Excellence in Developmental
Disabilities, Education, Research, and
Service.

HRSA’s Bureau of Primary Health
Care administers grants to Health
Centers receiving funding under section
330 of the Public Health Service Act and
has an approval process for
organizations seeking to qualify as
Federally Qualified Health Center

vulnerable populations, regardless of
their ability to pay and whether or not
they have health insurance. Many
Health Centers and FQHC Look-Alikes
offer dental, mental health and
substance abuse care.
HRSA uses the following application
forms to administer Section 330 Health
Centers grants and the FQHC Look Alike
application process. These application
forms are used by new and existing
Health Centers and FQHC Look-Alikes
to apply for grant and non-grant
opportunities, renew their grant or nongrant opportunities or change their
scope of project.
