In the summer of 2010, the six priorities were shared with the CCC program directors, and they were asked to integrate and emphasize the priorities in their updated cancer plans. The six priorities were also incorporated in the new fiveyear coordinated cooperative agreement, Cancer Prevention and Control Programs for State, Territorial and Tribal Organizations. CDC is requesting information needed to (1) evaluate the extent to which CCC programs are implementing the six NCCCP priorities, and (2) evaluate existing evaluation capacity building tools and revise tools as needed to support the implementation of NCCCP priorities. The information collection will include a web-based survey of NCCCP grantee program directors, as well as multiple focus groups with NCCCP grantee program directors and evaluators. NCCCP priorities. The estimated burden per response is 30 minutes. As part of the NCCCP evaluation, up to four focus groups will be conducted with a maximum of 10 respondents per group. Focus groups may include NCCCP program directors, designated NCCCP staff members, and stakeholders, such as program evaluators and coalition leaders. The purpose of the focus groups is to gather more in-depth information about ways in which CCCB capacity building tools can be improved to better support implementation of the NCCCP priorities. The estimated burden per response is 90 minutes. The planned survey and focus groups are key components of CDC’s evaluation of the extent to which grantees are implementing NCCCP priorities, as well as the extent to which selected CDC capacity building tools support implementation of the priorities. Information to be collected will inform the development of technical assistance for NCCCP grantees and enhancements to existing capacity building tools. OMB approval is requested for one year. Participation is voluntary and there are no costs to the respondents other than their time. The planned information collection activities are designed to address specific evaluation questions, including: What factors facilitate implementation of the NCCCP priorities?; What common barriers do grantees experience in efforts to implement the NCCCP priorities?; How has CDC supported grantee efforts to implement the NCCCP priorities?; and What additional resources are needed to support grantees’ efforts to implement the NCCCP priorities? CDC plans to conduct a web survey of all 69 NCCCP grantee program directors from the 50 states, the District of Columbia, seven tribes and tribal organizations, and seven U.S. Associated Pacific Islands/territories. The survey will include questions that address both evaluation focus areas: (1) NCCCP priorities and (2) CCCB capacity building tools. The program directors will be asked to provide information about the utilization and usefulness of the Comprehensive Cancer Control Branch (CCCB) Program Evaluation Toolkit, a capacity building tool developed and disseminated to NCCCP grantees in 2010. Program directors will also be asked to provide information about their efforts to implement the ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of responses per respondent Number of respondents Average burden per response (in hr) Total burden (in hr) Type of respondent Form name NCCCP State Grantee Program Director .............
