Proposed Project: Multisite Evaluation
of the In Community Spirit Program—
Prevention of HIV/AIDS for Native/
American Indian and Alaska Native
Women Living in Rural and Frontier
Indian Country (NEW)—OMB No. 0990–
NEW—Office on Women’s Health
(OWH).
Abstract: The Office on Women’s
Health (OWH), within the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Health, will
conduct the Multisite Evaluation of the
In Community Spirit Program—
Prevention of HIV/AIDS for Native/
American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/
AN) Women Living in Rural and
Frontier Indian Country (In Community
Spirit Program). The In Community
Spirit Program is an initiative
comprising three types of program
components being implemented with
women in AI/AN communities for HIV
prevention: (1) Community awareness,
(2) capacity building, and (3) prevention
education. The multisite evaluation will
provide data on the content and context
of programs and the outcomes of
program activities on participant
knowledge and behavior related to
sexual health.
The multisite evaluation is comprised
of two main activities across three
program components: (1) Surveys and
(2) key informant interviews. There are
two versions of key informant
interviews: baseline and follow-up.
There are also two versions of the
survey: (1) Community Awareness
Version for administration with women
targeted through the community
awareness activities and (2) Prevention
Education Version to be administered to
women who receive prevention
education through the program.
The average annual respondent
burden is estimated below. The estimate
reflects the average annual number of
respondents, the average annual number
of responses, the time it will take for
each response, and the average annual
burden across 3 years of OMB clearance,
which includes 2 years of data
collection.

Proposed Project: Descriptive
information of solutions provided to the
Federal government in response to
Challenge and Competition solicitations
posted on Challenge.gov—OMB No.
0990–NEW—Immediate Office of the
Secretary.
Abstract: This request is to seek
generic clearance for the collection of
routine information requested of
responders to solicitations the Federal
government makes during the issuance
of challenges and competitions posted
on the General Service Administration
(GSA)’s Challenge.gov Web site. Since
passage of the America COMPETES Act
of 2011, challenge competitions are
increasingly being used by Federal
agencies to solve complex problems and
obtain innovative solutions. In this role,
the Federal government places a
description of a problem and parameters
of the solution on the Challenge.gov
Web site. The solutions are evaluated by
the submitting agency and typically
prizes (monetary and non-monetary) are
awarded to the winning entries.
This clearance applies to challenges
posted on Challenge.gov which uses a
common platform for the solicitation of
challenges from the public. Each agency
designs the criteria for its solicitations
based on the goals of the challenge and
the specific needs of the agency. There
is no standard submission format for
solution providers to follow. We
anticipate that approximately 100
challenges would be issued each year by
HHS, with an average of 15 submissions
to each challenge solicitation. It is
expected that other federal agencies will
issue a similar number of challenges.
There is no set schedule for the issuance
of challenges; they are developed and
issued on an ‘‘as needs’’ basis in
response to issues the federal agency
wishes to solve. The respondents to the
challenges, who are participating
voluntarily, are unlikely to reply to
more than one or several of the
challenges.
Although in recent memoranda the
GSA and Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) described circumstances
whereby OMB approval of a PRA
request is not needed, program officials
at HHS have identified several sets of
information that will typically need to
be requested of solution providers to
enable the solutions to be adequately
evaluated by the federal agency issuing
the challenge.
