Proposed Project
Prevention of Child Maltreatment
through Policy Change—NEW—
National Center for Injury Prevention
and Control (NCIPC), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The prevalence and consequences of
child maltreatment (CM) make it a
public health concern that requires early
and effective prevention. Public policies
can be critical in shaping every level of
the social ecology, including
individuals, families, and communities,
and thus have the potential to play a key
role in the prevention of CM. In order
to protect children and youth and build
an evidence-base of effective prevention
strategies, evaluation of public policies
are needed, including those policies
currently being implemented. Policies
related to family income (e.g.,
Temporary Assistance to Needy
Families (TANF) eligibility and inroads
to related services) were identified by
CDC through the Division of Violence
Prevention’s Public Health Leadership
Initiative policy analysis as those that
are in need of rigorous evaluation.
CDC requests OMB approval for a
period of two years in order to perform
a data collection, which will provide
data for a larger outcome evaluation that
seeks to understand if countyadministered policy strategies of the
TANF program result in lower rates of
CM and associated child welfare
outcomes (e.g., time to adoption). The
proposed data collection will include
surveys and semi-structured interviews
with state and county-level government

employees and partners in Colorado to
address three primary aims: (1) To
understand how a state policy allowing
counties to administer TANF programs
with flexibility contributes to countylevel adoption of integrated welfare and
child welfare service models; (2) to
develop and refine an Implementation
Index, which will quantify the degree of
integration between welfare and child
welfare services; and (3) to inform the
larger outcome evaluation, which
examines whether TANF policies and
program supports reduce rates of CM
when they are delivered in an integrated
welfare and child welfare service model.
Understanding how service
integration between TANF and child
welfare affects CM may be very
important to improving CDC’s ability to
devise and implement effective
population-based prevention strategies.
Approximately 188 Colorado state
and county employees and partners
form the sample population.
Specifically, state- and county-level
employees working in welfare and/or
child welfare agencies will be invited to
complete a brief survey and an hourlong semi-structured interview. This
study population includes individuals
employed in the following positions:
County-Level Child Welfare Workers,
State-Level Administrators, County
Directors of Human Services, Child
Welfare Services and Colorado Works
Leadership/Manager, Child Welfare
Services and Colorado Works Case
Manager, Caseworker, Technician, and
Other Client-Serving Staff. An
additional 72 individuals employed by
Allied Staff (e.g., Housing,
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program, Medicaid, Child Care) and
Partners of Child Welfare and Colorado
Works will also be invited to complete
an hour-long semi-structured interview.
For the survey, 116 project participants
will respond to the survey once, where
each response requires 15 minutes: 116
(responses total) × 1 (responses per total
project period) × 15/60 (hour per
response) = 30 total survey burden
hours. For the semi-structured
interview, 188 project participants will
respond to the interview once, where
this response requires 188 total semistructured interview burden hours. The
total burden hours for this proposed
data collection are 218.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.

The Administration on Aging
(AoA), Administration for Community
Living (ACL) is announcing the
proposed continuation of the collection
of information for the Alzheimer’s
Disease Supportive Services Program.
The proposed collection of information
listed below has been submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and clearance under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Submit written comments on the
collection of information by October 3,
2013.
ADDRESSES: Submit written comments
on the collection of information by
email to Jane.Tilly@acl.hhs.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jane
Tilly 202.357.3438 or email: Jane.Tilly@
acl.hhs.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Alzheimer’s Disease Supportive
Services Program (ADSSP) is authorized
through Sections 398, 399 and 399A of
the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, as
SUMMARY:
amended by Public Law 101–557 Home
Health Care and Alzheimer’s Disease
Amendments of 1990. The ADSSP helps
state efforts to expand the availability of
community-level supportive services for
persons with Alzheimer’s disease and
their caregivers, including underserved
populations. In compliance with the
PHS Act, ACL revised an ADSSP Data
Reporting Tool (ADSSP–DRT) in 2010.
The ADSSP–DRT collects information
about the delivery of direct services by
ADSSP state grantees, as well as basic
demographic information about service
recipients. This version includes some
revisions to the approved 2010 version.
The revised version would be in effect
beginning 8/31/2013 and thereafter.
The proposed FY2013 ADSSP–DRT
can be found on AoA’s Web site at:
