states of New Jersey and New York. The
Hotline will conduct training for current
disaster responders, provide training
and technical assistance to local
programs that run hotlines/crisis lines,
and develop a public awareness
campaign to publicize the various ways
to contact the Hotline, the Teen Dating
Abuse Helpline, state hotlines, and local
program hotlines.
Reports from the New York and New
Jersey Disaster Task Forces indicate the
need for training on domestic violence
in disaster response situations and on
making connections to appropriate
services for disaster case managers and
for state, regional, and federal staff
involved with on-scene response. Frontline disaster relief staff and volunteers
may be the first responders to observe
domestic violence in families they are
supporting; however, they may not be
able to discern signs of domestic
violence due to a lack of training. In
fact, many responders may confuse the
stresses of the disaster with the stresses
of domestic violence on the victim and
may overlook abusive behaviors on the
part of the intimate partner as signs of
stress from the disaster.
Though based in Austin, TX, the
Hotline’s experience in providing victim
advocacy, referrals, and program
support makes it well-positioned to
provide training to disaster responders
in New York and New Jersey. Training
will concentrate on protocols and
referral procedures, accessing domestic
violence services, recognizing the
warning signs of domestic violence,
safety planning, and maintaining
ongoing health and wellness initiatives
during the crisis response and recovery
phase. In this effort, the Hotline will
partner with the New Jersey Coalition
for Battered Women, the New York State
Coalition Against Domestic Violence,
and national experts on domestic
violence and disaster response to
develop and offer appropriate and
effective training.

SUMMARY:
Information Collection Request Title:
Patient Survey—Health Centers (OMB
No. 0915–xxxx)—[NEW]
Abstract: The Health Center program
supports Community Health Centers
(CHCs), Migrant Health Centers (MHCs),
Health Care for the Homeless (HCH)
programs, and Public Housing Primary
Care (PHPC) programs. Health Centers
(HCs) receive grants from HRSA to
provide primary and preventive health
care services to medically underserved
populations. The proposed Patient
Survey will collect information about
HC patients, regarding their health
status, the reasons for seeking care at
HCs, their health-related diagnoses,
health services they obtain at HCs and
from other healthcare settings, the
quality of those services received, and
their satisfaction with the care they
received. This information will be
collected through in-person interviews
from a nationally representative sample
of HC patients. Prior to the deployment
of the national study, a cognitive pretest will be conducted to refine and test
the face validity and internal validity of
questions in the survey instrument in
different languages, and test the survey
sampling methodologies and
procedures. The pre-test will include
cognitive interviews to ensure that the
questions are being understood as were
intended. Interviews conducted in the
pre-test and the national study are
