Proposed Project: Healthy Weight Collaborative (OMB No. 0915–NEW)— [NEW]. Background: The mission of the Healthy Weight Collaborative (HWC) is to discover, identify, develop, and disseminate both evidence-based and promising clinical and communitybased interventions to prevent and treat obesity. The HWC was funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration under Title V, Section 501(a)(2) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 701(a)(2)) and Section 4002 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Pub. L. 111–148). The goal of the HWC is to value and leverage each community team’s strengths, networks, grantees, and expertise towards the common goal of promoting healthy weight for all populations, especially those at high risk for overweight and obesity. The HWC is modeled after the Institute for Healthcare Improvement Collaborative Model for achieving breakthrough improvement. Also known as the Breakthrough Series, this model was developed in 1996 to help healthcare organizations make breakthrough improvements in quality Number of respondents Instrument Responses per respondent while reducing costs. This model is designed to close the gap between science and practice by creating a structure in which organizations can easily learn from each other and from recognized experts in topic areas in which they want to make quality improvements. Approximately 50 community teams will be recruited to participate in the HWC. The intended beneficiaries of this program are children and their families, and teams in the HWC can include health departments, community-based organizations, HRSA and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) grantees; especially safety net providers and other stakeholders in the HRSA and HHS program network. Teams will be asked to report on non-personally identifiable aggregate information from clinical and public health or community interventions related to four domains, including clinical and public health: • Body Mass Index (BMI), collected from an electronic health record. • Nutrition, which includes measures related to change in knowledge, attitudes, behavior, and consumption. • Physical Activity, which includes measures related to change in knowledge, attitudes, behavior, and levels of activity. • Partnerships and Process Improvement, which includes measures related to linkages made between clinical and community-based or public health programs, increased efficiencies related to these linkages, and the number of people served by these linkages.

An educational program led by the National Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies coalition (HMHB), text4baby is intended to help women in having safe and healthy pregnancies by empowering them with information they need to give their babies the best possible start in life. The text4baby service was launched nationally in February 2010. Text4baby is made possible through a broad, public-private partnership that includes government and tribal agencies, corporations, academic institutions, professional associations, and non-profit organizations. The goal of this program evaluation is to examine the characteristics of women who utilize the text4baby mobile phonebased program, assess their experience with the program, and determine whether text4baby is associated with timely access to prenatal care and Number of respondents Instrument Responses per respondent healthy behaviors during pregnancy and through the first year of the infant’s life. This information will help the Department of Health and Human Services to understand the usefulness of using mobile technology and the potential for expanding and/or adapting mobile phone messaging to additional health topics or conditions. The study may also offer insight into planning and implementing similar projects. Purpose: The purpose of the evaluation is to assess behavior change and the usefulness of the text4baby messages on current subscribers to the program. There are four components to the evaluation: • Mobile survey of current subscribers to the text4baby program. • Consumer Safety Net Survey of subscribers and non-subscribers to the text4baby program in safety net settings. • Focus Groups of current subscribers to ensure more in-depth qualitative data are collected regarding the usefulness of the messages and the program. • Key Informant Interviews of a diverse mix of providers in safety net settings to examine any utility from the provider perspective. Providers could include case managers, outreach workers, and health educators. • Key Stakeholder Interviews of community stakeholders that have built partnerships and coalitions around text4baby at a local, State, regional or national level to examine factors related to coalition building, sustainability and partnership.
