collection activities, SLAITS has
quickly collected and produced
household and person-level data to
monitor health-related areas.
Questionnaire content is drawn from
existing surveys within DHHS and other
Federal agencies, or developed
specifically to meet project sponsor
needs. Examples of topical areas include
infant, child, adolescent, parent, and
family health, well-being, and
knowledge, attitude, and behaviors;
children with special health care needs
(CSHCN); functioning; life course and
social determinants of health;
developmental delays and disabilities;
acute and chronic conditions;
immunizations; access to and use of
health care; program participation;
adoption; and changes in health
insurance coverage and experiences.
Since its inception, data from the
SLAITS mechanism have been used by
researchers in the government,
university, commercial, and private
sectors; policymakers; and advocates to
evaluate content and/or programs.
SLAITS data continue to be heavily
used by Federal and state Maternal and
Child Health Bureau Directors to
evaluate programs and service needs.
Several SLAITS modules provided data
for multiple Congressionally-mandated
reports on healthcare disparities and
quality; at least one report to Congress
on health insurance coverage among
children; and reports of the National
Academy of Sciences. Within DHHS,
the Office of the Assistant Secretary for
Planning and Evaluation and the
Administration for Children and
Families used SLAITS to collect data for
the first nationally representative survey
of adoptive families across adoption
types for children with and without
special health care needs, and to assess
their post-adoption service use and
unmet needs. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time to
participate.

Proposed Project: Nurse Faculty Loan
Program (NFLP) Annual Operating
Report (AOR) Form (OMB No. 0915–

request is for approval of the modified
AOR for applicants to report NFLP loan

applicants will include information on
the total number of enrollees, graduates,

Under Title VIII, section 846A of the
Public Health Service Act, as amended
by Public Law 111–148, the Secretary of
Health and Human Services (HHS)
enters into an agreement with a school
of nursing and makes an award to the
school. The award is used to establish

nursing makes loans from the NFLP
fund to students enrolled full-time in a
master’s or doctoral nursing education
program that will prepare them to
become qualified nursing faculty.

lending school, loan recipients may
receive up to 85 percent NFLP loan
cancellation over a consecutive fouryear period in exchange for service as
full-time faculty at a school of nursing
located in the U.S. and all of its
territories where a school of nursing
may be located. The NFLP lending
school collects any portion of the loan
that is not cancelled and any loans that
go into repayment and deposits these
monies into the NFLP loan fund to make
additional NFLP loans. The school of
nursing must keep records of all NFLP
loan fund transactions. The NFLP
Annual Operating Report is used to
collect information relating to the NFLP
loan fund operations and financial
activities for a specified reporting
period (July 1 through June 30 of the
academic year). Participating schools
will complete and submit the AOR
annually. In addition to the newly
required data, participating schools will
provide the Federal Government with
current and cumulative information on:
(1) The number and amount of loans
made, (2) the number of NFLP
recipients and graduates, (3) the number
and amount of loans collected, (4) the
number and amount of loans in
repayment, (5) the number of NFLP
graduates employed as nurse faculty, (6)
NFLP loan fund receipts, disbursements
and other related cost. The NFLP loan
fund balance is used to determine future
awards to the school.

of this program is to support decisions
to abstain from sexual activity by
providing abstinence programming as
defined by Section 510(b) of the Social
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 710(b)) with a
focus on those groups that are most
likely to bear children out-of-wedlock,
such as youth in or aging out of foster
care.
States are encouraged to develop
flexible, medically accurate and
effective abstinence-based plans
responsive to their specific needs. These
